I wonder whether you'd actually want many small investors versus few big investors? While I love the efficiency, convenience and transparency of FundersClub, I think the big value of investors comes from the personal relationships you can build with them, as well as the domain expertise they can provide to you. Plus, doesn't it make you hit the 500-shareholder limit pretty quick?

They probably group all the investments into one vehicle, with a single shareholder entity. I don't know all the details, though.
