Any company in any industry can raise funds through ICO, but some companies have already had stable products for people to use, so that its ICO will be easier to accomplish because people's trust will be higher!

to my knowledge. When expanding the type of business or bringing crypto to further develop the type of business, production is available. Requires judicial legality and endorses the relevant property. It is not easy. It's not as easy as you can start up an ico and put the smart contract algorithm from the token.
- because, if anyone can raise funds for any type of business. It is complex and conflicts with the laws of justice for society.

Of course, you can raise funds through ICO. It can give investors other ways to return, such as lower consumer prices, or give you a member and so on! This is normal!

Is it possible for a company to raise funds through an ICO even if it is not a startup?  Huh  For example: Say company X manufactures chocolates but now it wants to further expand its operations and needs funds for it, can it opt for ICO instead of a Private Equity fund or a Bank Debt?
Please help I am a complete newbie and this concept is confusing me a lot  Roll Eyes
Thanks
Yes it is possible but let me remind you that it should be a unique idea that will solve the existing problem and not just to help your own problem by funding your company. For example if your company is a chocolate and your problem is fund, I don't see any reason why you should make an ICO because you are lack of fund with your chocolate business. Chocolate is not a technology, it is raw materials.
Correct, there are many icos that I see and my first reaction is, why are you creating an ico for this? It is true that until recently icos made very easy for people that had the talent to get the funds to make their ideas come true, but I think there has been some abuse by some people that have created unnecessary icos and I think now we are paying the price with all the regulation that is being put in place.

If the company is manufacturing chocolate, it somehow needs to relate to the use of blockchain technology. In order to get targeted investment, ICO funding is far easier than other capital fundings currently.

If they want to expand their business investments, they can use different capital calling strategies. But I think ICO will be a good way to call for investment and not take too much time. because the ICO is a new phenomenon, so there will be a lot of trust and find projects to invest ICO and to profit from it.
Calling for capital through the ICO is a smart decision and does not take too long to present a plan for the future.

Raising money through ICO is by far the easiest method of raising money compared to the other methods.
Until now, it was hard to find an investor for your product. You would have had to attend various start up events and convince people out there to believe in your product and invest.
Now that has changed and you can simply raise money by launching your own ICO. But your product should be good enough for people to trust your project else you might fail like tons of shit coins have failed.
It takes a lot of effort to stay among the top.

Yes it is possible and there are tons of ICO that held by big company. When they want to add their liquidity and entering Crypto world they must launch an ICO, while the alternative for ICO is Airdrop which is not really profitable. Company will choose ICO over Airdrop of course. Moreover if they put their big name to support the ICO investor will be more assure, and more confident to participate in the ICO.

ICO stands for Initial coin offering, so it's only feasible if you're creating a new coin or payout coins from the dev wallet.

It is possible to raise funds for an ICO as an already existing company, yes.

Indeed. Thats why they are creating them and to be honest thats the easier way to go as compared the bank funding option. The later one needs huge documentation, collateral securities and much more to pass the funding.

ICO's first principle is to create the funding source and thats why they provide you token of share! That symbolises your investment and give you title of share holder, thus once they profit then they share you profits!

This is very possible and you just need to build trust in other to be able to actually rise fund for your project. However many scammers are now in the icos market and start up projects are what their are using to scam people. I have invest in many start up projects and 99% of them are scam. If you desire to start a company why not start from using your own capital and later use ico market to raise money for expansion.

I think it is possible if you can impress the company by your product. It also depends on your coin offering if it will fit to your product. Your product must be good inorder for the company to accept it.

Nowadays everyone with whitepaper capital can make the project. If startup alone can let alone companies that already exist. So it is quite possible that traditional companies will go digital by utilizing crypto.

It is possible to raise funds through ICO, but you need to make your own coin. One which coincides with your vision, the product should be such which compliments the vision. Then with appropriate marketing and promotion you can raise the funds you need. Yes, an existing company can also raise through ICO. The process can be confusing as regulation is very grey so make sure a law expert familiar with legality of your area is on board.

Of course it is possible, now everything possible in the cryptocurrency  Smiley If some company need funds to expand their projects they can offering their coins that the company make for the project. So the people who want invest for the project just join the ICO and buy the coin which is the project offer. One of the advantage of the ICO is the price of the coin cheaper and so many bonuses that investor can get when buy in the ICO stage, rather than investor buy after ICO ends. But when we want invest in the ICO's project we must carefully choose ICO because there are so many ICO scam which made by the unresponsibility people.
