What Is Regulation Crowdfunding (Reg CF)?

Under Reg CF, eligible life science companies can raise capital from both accredited and non-accredited investors - publicly communicating their mission and progress - through a compliant, SEC-regulated pathway.

Your Terms

Define your own offering terms and valuation

Public Reach

Publicly communicate your mission and progress

Unlike traditional fundraising, Reg CF enables biotech and life science companies to educate prospective investors, increase visibility, and build a base of long-term supporters alongside capital. Because Reg CF involves the offer and sale of securities, issuers are required to conduct their raise through a registered intermediary - such as a SEC-registered funding portal.

For companies advancing therapeutics, diagnostics, and scientific technologies, Reg CF offers a compliant pathway to access new capital while aligning scientific innovation with broader public engagement.

"Reg CF is best suited for life science companies that value education, transparency, and long-term stakeholder engagement - not just capital."

- Dr. Neva West, CEO, BioTech Funding Portal

Reg CF offers a regulated pathway that connects capital, credibility, and community - without sacrificing compliance.
