Explore the innovative concept of quadratic funding in this 11-minute TED Talk by Gitcoin founder Kevin Owocki. Discover how this revolutionary crowdfunding model uses mathematics to amplify the impact of small donations, potentially turning a $1 contribution into a $100 impact for causes you care about. Learn about the principles and potential pitfalls of this philanthropic approach, which empowers numerous small donors to have a greater collective influence than a single large contributor. Gain insights into how quadratic funding could reshape the landscape of charitable giving and community support, potentially financing dreams and projects in unprecedented ways. Recorded at TED2024, this thought-provoking talk challenges traditional notions of fundraising and offers a glimpse into a future where the power of many small actions can create significant change.
