To fund their participation in Made in Designland, JULJA has turned to crowdfunding, in an effort to raise funds necessary to design and produce collections for the tour, and arrange and attend their own fashion show. As incentive, JULJA is offering special campaign products, as well as clothes from their new collection, to promote support. In exchange for their investment, contributors towards JULJA's internationalization are rewarded with handwritten postcards, posters or an exclusive photoshoot day with team JULJA. The crowdfunding campaign also offers funders a unique chance to pre-order pieces from JULJA's 'Running from the dream' collection.

Crowdfunding is a relatively new phenomenon in Finland and its full potential has not yet been realized, especially within the fashion industry. Team JULJA eagerly awaits the results of this innovative campaign, the interest it will generate in crowdfunding, and the investment they hope it encourages in Finnish design and young entrepreneurship.
