Me and couple of friends are currently working on a hardware project with a goal to release it as a product. We applied for funding with the CMF but were rejected because they prefer software more. Therefore, we are now looking for other resources. Can anyone recommend a good place to apply for funding/investment?<p>Thanks
Prototype it up and hit kickstarter/indiegogo. If you've truly got a winner, the market will support you. If not, you've saved yourself and potential investors money and time.<p>Hardware is increasingly going this route due to the significant investment required into getting to market. Crowdsourcing is a great way to set up a pre-order program without the cost of development.<p>If you have any questions you can look at the pebble watch, qtar, or Ouya gaming platform as examples of successful hardware campaigns.<p>Best of luck.
