Gute Nachrichten! Wir freuen uns K nstler, Musiker, Designer und Projektgr nder in der Kickstarter-Community Deutschland willkommen zu hei en. Ab heute k nnen Projektgr nder in Deutschland den Aufbau ihres Projekts beginnen - und schon ab dem 12. Mai live gehen!
F r die n chsten Wochen haben wir einige Veranstaltungen in verschiedenen St dten in ganz Deutschland geplant.
Wir hoffen, dass du bei einer dieser Veranstaltungen dabei sein kannst. Falls nicht, w rde ich dir gerne hier Kickstarter vorstellen:
Hallo Deutschland!
ich bin Yancey, CEO bei Kickstarter und ich freue mich, euch alle in der Kickstarter Community begr en zu d rfen.
Kickstarter ist die weltweit gr te Crowdfunding-Community f r kreative Projekte - ganz egal ob es sich dabei um Filme, Spiele, Restaurants, Musik, Design oder Technologie handelt. Dank vieler fantasievoller Ideen und dem Enthusiasmus von Millionen Menschen weltweit wurden seit der Gr ndung von Kickstarter im Jahr 2009 ber 80.000 kreative Projekte erfolgreich finanziert.
Ein paar dieser Projekte wurden von Deutschen initiiert, die gemeinsam mit Partnern auf der ganzen Welt zusammengearbeitet haben, um unsere Plattform bereits vor dem offiziellen Start in Deutschland nutzen zu k nnen. So wurden eine Fotoausstellung an der Berliner Mauer er ffnet, Kochb cher geschrieben, Kunst, Filme und neue Schriftarten entworfen und sogar die weltweit l ngste Murmelbahn verwirklicht! Heute sind wir endlich in Deutschland angekommen, um euch ohne Einschr nkungen bei der Verwirklichung und Finanzierung eurer Ideen zu unterst tzen: Kickstarter ist ab sofort in deutscher Sprache verf gbar und Projekte k nnen in Euro gestartet werden. Zudem haben wir eine Reihe gro artiger Events f r deutsche Projektgr nder geplant.
Wir glauben, dass wir alle in einem neuen, kreativen Zeitalter leben, in dem jeder mit Zugang zum Internet seine Ideen zum Leben erwecken kann. Kickstarter hat in dieser Entwicklung eine bedeutende Rolle eingenommen: Mehr als 1 Milliarde US-Dollar wurden bereits an Projektgr nder verteilt und wir haben den Unterst tzungsprozess modern, einheitlich und f r alle zug nglich gemacht.
An alle K nstler, Projektgr nder und zuk nftige Projektgr nder in Deutschland: Kickstarter wurde f r euch gemacht. Um Menschen und eure kreativen Projekte zusammen zu bringen. Es wird von einem Team unterst tzt, das ebenso wie ihr aus engagierten K nstlern und Gr ndern besteht und euch bestm glich bei der Umsetzung eurer Ideen unterst tzen wird.
An alle Interessierten, Fans und F rderer in Deutschland: Kickstarter lebt durch euch. Es wurde geschaffen, um euch mit faszinierenden K nstlern und gro artigen Ideen zusammen zu bringen. Es wird hier in Brooklyn von einem Team unterst tzt, das ebenso wie ihr aus begeisterten Fans besteht.
Wir sind alle mehr als optimistisch, was die Zukunft kreativen Schaffens angeht. Wir sehen mehr M glichkeiten und Chancen f r K nstler und Projektgr nder als jemals zuvor. Wir wollen mehr Menschen dabei unterst tzen, ihre kreativen Ideen zum Leben zu erwecken. Das war es, was uns in der Vergangenheit ausgemacht hat und f r was wir auch in Zukunft stehen werden.
Wir k nnen es kaum erwarten, dass ihr Teil davon werdet.
<3 Yancey
CEO, Kickstarter

Big news today! We're excited to welcome artists, musicians, designers, and creators of all types based in Germany to the Kickstarter community. Creators in Germany can start building their projects today and launch them to the world on May 12.
To celebrate this big launch, we'll be having lots of events in cities across Germany over the next few weeks. We hope you'll come and say hi, but in case not everyone can make it, I wrote a letter to introduce you to Kickstarter:
Hallo Deutschland!
My name is Yancey, I'm the CEO of Kickstarter, and it's my pleasure to welcome all of you to the Kickstarter community.
Kickstarter is the world's largest funding community for creative projects - everything from films, games, restaurants, and music to art, design, and technology. Thanks to the imagination and enthusiasm of millions of people across the globe, more than 80,000 creative projects have been successfully funded on Kickstarter since we launched in 2009.
Some of those projects were created by enterprising Germans, who worked with people in other countries to use the site before we were even fully open to Germany. They put a photo exhibit on the Berlin Wall and made cookbooks, art, films, new typefaces and even the world's longest marble shoot! But today, we are finally here to serve the German community in a complete way - our site is in German, you can start a project in euro, and we're throwing a great series of initial events for German creators.
We believe we are all living in a new creative golden age, where anyone with internet access can bring an idea to life. Kickstarter has played an important role in this creative renaissance: through Kickstarter, people have distributed more than $1 billion to creators, and we've remade patronage into an accessible, modern, and mainstream way to create and share.
To the artists, creators, and aspiring creators of Germany: Kickstarter was made for you. It was built to bring people together around your creative projects. It's supported by a team of enthusiastic fellow artists and creators who are devoted to helping your ideas come to life.
To the fans, super-fans, and patrons of Germany: Kickstarter is powered by you. It was built to bring you together with amazing artists with great ideas. And it's supported by a team of enthusiastic fellow fans here in Brooklyn.
We are extreme optimists on the future of creativity. We see more access and opportunity for arti
