The paper seeks to identify the limits of the funding gap in relation to equity capital in Poland. The following thesis was proposed: companies operating in Poland have difficulty obtaining equity capital from VC funds and business angel investors in the 1 million PLN to 15 million PLN range. An analysis is done on 36 VC funds and business angel preferences in Poland, confirming that the thesis is true. Further aims of the article are to: 1) put definitions related to the financial gap in order, 2) analyse the VC market in Poland, particularly in terms of investment limits and stage business financing, 3) analyse the business angel market in Poland.

  W niniejszym artykule podjęto próbę odpowiedzi na pytanie, czy crowdfunding udziałowy wpływa na ograniczenie luki kapitałowej wśród przedsiębiorstw na wczesnych etapach rozwoju w Polsce. W badaniach odniesiono się do kampanii crowdfundingowych przeprowadzonych na trzech najpopularniejszych platformach w Polsce w okresie 2015–2019. Otrzymane wyniki pozwoliły na realizację celu głównego, tj. scharakteryzowanie equity crowdfundingu w Polsce oraz umiejscowienie go pośród innych źródeł kapitału o charakterze udziałowym. Uzyskane wyniki potwierdzają przyjętą hipotezę główną, stanowiącą, że crowdfunding udziałowy ogranicza lukę kapitałową wśród przedsiębiorstw na wczesnych etapach rozwoju w Polsce. W ramach przeprowadzonych badań dowiedziono, że z crowdfundingu udziałowego w Polsce korzystają głównie na wczesnych etapach rozwoju niewielkie spółki z branż wysoko rozwiniętych. Jednocześnie zdecydowana większość z analizowanych projektów w ramach crowdfundingu udziałowego zakończyła się pozyskaniem kapitału mieszczącego się w luce kapitałowej Macmillana. Ponadto wykazano wysoką asymetrię informacji pomiędzy emitentem a inwestorem uczestniczącym w kampanii crowdfundingowej i zaproponowano autorską definicję crowdfundingu udziałowego.

The aim of the paper is to verify if equity crowdfunding has an impact on equity gap reduction among early stage companies in Poland. The analysis is based on crowdfunding campaigns organized on the three most popular platforms in Poland during the 2015–2019 period. The presented research on equity crowdfunding allowed the main goal of the paper to be accomplished, namely to characterize equity crowdfunding in Poland. The results obtained also enabled equity crowdfunding to be placed among other equity capital sources for companies in the early stages of development. The results of the study verify the hypothesis that equity crowdfunding has an impact on equity gap reduction among Polish early stage companies. Our key findings prove that equity crowdfunding in Poland is mainly used by relatively small, early stage companies that operate in various sectors. Another finding is that most of the companies raised capital that qualifies as the Macmillan gap. We also proved that there is a relatively high level of information asymmetry among equity crowdfunding campaigns and provided our own definition of equity crowdfunding.
