With the explosion of the commercial space industry, there is an increasing interest in investing in space companies. One of the options is a form of crowd funding offered by a company called Space Ventures, and our guest on this edition of The Ex Terra Podcast is Aaron Burnett, its founder and CEO.

Spaced Ventures bills itself as the planet\'s first public space investment portal. By building in access to industry experts and a growing network of space enthusiasts, raising your funding with Spaced Ventures could set your company up for long term success, according to the company.

On the podcast, Aaron talks about how crowdfunding works for individuals interested in investing in space companies. Spaced Ventures works with a select group of heavily vetted companies that have a high probability of success. But while investing in space companies has often been limited to a small number of people, Spaced Ventures allows smaller investors to have access to those opportunities.

\\n

Space is a dynamic, capital intensive industry but its current capital formation is nascent. 98% of space investment has gone to companies in Series A and beyond, while the vast majority of space startups have little or no options for seed funding.

\\n

The company believes that it is "time to innovate out of the current government and billionaire-only space funding model. We\\u2019re proud to provide a platform that allows regular people to invest as little as $100 to show their support for space entrepreneurs all around the world."

\\n

How does what happens in space affect your everyday life? The Ex Terra podcast is dedicated to introducing you to many of the interesting people involved in the commercial space industry, and taking you behind the scenes with many of the companies making significant contributions to the new space economy. The podcast is available on Anchor, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Breaker, Overcast, Pocketcasts and Radio Public.
