Carlos Amezcua to Emcee Crowd Invest Summit

Emmy Award Winning Journalist, Television Host, and Media Visionary to Host World’s Largest Startup and Real Estate Online Investment Conference

LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / June 2, 2017 / Crowd Invest Summit has confirmed that Carlos Amezcua, award winning media industry innovator and host, president of CarlosMedia Corporation and television host, will emcee the conference on September 6th and 7th, 2017, in Los Angeles. Crowd Invest Summit, the world’s largest event of its kind, will be hosted at the Los Angeles Convention Center in downtown Los Angeles to accommodate the over 3,000 anticipated investor and entrepreneur attendees.

Crowd Invest Summit was developed with the vision that every American, through the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (also known as the JOBS Act), can now have access to and invest in startups and real estate deals like never before through crowdfunding.

“What the crowdfunding industry needs more than anything is mainstream exposure, which is why it’s so great to have Southern California media legend and innovator Carlos Amezcua Emcee the summit,” said Crowd Invest Summit Co-Founder, Josef Holm.

“Having watched Carlos Amezcua on television for over 20 years, I can’t think of anyone we would rather have emcee our event,” said Alon Goren, co-founder of Crowd Invest Summit. “Carlos’ understanding of the intersection of technology and media makes him perfect for our event.”

Equity Crowdfunding: Opportunity for All

“Thanks to the democratization of capital, everyone can now get involved in today’s innovation economy,” said Carlos Amezcua. “I’m excited to be involved in a conference and movement that gives every American the access and the opportunity to participate.”

Prior to the JOBS Act, only accredited investors – those with income of $200,000 per year individually, or $300,000 with a spouse – could legally invest in private companies. Now, for the first time in more than 80 years, anyone over 18 globally is able to invest. With a recent study by the Kauffman
Foundation finding that angel investments have returned an average of 27% internal rate of return (IRR), everyday Americans have started to invest in companies to support the entrepreneurs they believe in and with hopes of generating profits.
