The aim of this article is to inform the crowdfunding as a viable option for entrepreneurs and investors, for which the concept is explained, the business model will be described and the concept will be related to variables or related agents, relevant to meet the target of this article. MSMEs in AL, and particularly in Mexico are limited, by economic conditions, to access credit in the traditional financial system. Resourcing is restricted to few options and this affects their growth and development. At the same time, foreign or local investors do not find access to capital markets, limiting their possibilities. Today, it is driven by these needs, and the state of technology and innovation, that crowdsourcing emerges as a financing and investment model (in projects such a start-up or spin-off), which can be realized through platforms on the internet. It gives wide possibilities of coverage and penetration in developed markets, or not.
