Publicworx

Crowdfunding for public infrastructure p

Publicworx is an online platform for raising funds for infrastructure projects such as roads, bridges, and schools through the use of crowdfunded private equity and debt investment. Essentially, they are 'Fundrise' for Public-Private Partnership (P3) infrastructure developments where private developers finance, design, build operate and maintain an infrastructure asset on behalf of a public agency. Publicworx allows P3 developers to access a global network of investors (accredited and unaccredited) and offers the ability to target investment from members of the community where the project is being built. This is an attractive option for public agency partners who desire to provide a social and financial return to their constituents. For investors, Publicworx provides access to a new asset class that offers low risk, long term, and stable returns, along with tangible societal impact. Primarily, Publicworx earns revenues by charging investors a percentage of funds invested.
