Ask HN: Where to find businesses that want funding

1 points by mcollinsblog ↗ HN
I've had a bit of success and would like to get into the funding game.

Funnily enough, I'm asking a question I thought I'd never have to ask: where do I find businesses who want funding?

I have a decent amount of capital to invest, mainly looking for companies who want anywhere from $10k-$50k, could potentially do more if it was the right fit.

I'd really like to work with a large number of options. I'm pretty picky and think I'll know a good match when I see one. The difficulty is finding enough potentials to sort through.

Been looking through kickstarter and other crowdfunding sites, mainly looking for businesses that aren't getting funded by have potential.

Problem is, these sites are chock-full of music and art projects, projects I respect but have no interest in funding.

With all the people needing funding in this world, it seems like it should be easy to get 1000+ potential businesses relatively quickly.

Is there any way to do this in a convenient manner?

Thanks!
