Indiegogo was founded with the goal of giving everyone the opportunity to fund what matters to them. Since then, we’ve seen some truly incredible and inspiring ideas come to life, and we want to provide campaigners with the tools necessary to turn their projects into real businesses. We’re excited to announce a new partnership with Brookstone, the innovative product developer and specialty retailer, to help bring the most groundbreaking crowdfunded products to market quicker than ever before.
Indiegogo and Brookstone Launch
Aligned with Indiegogo’s commitment to empowering entrepreneurial campaigns to move quickly from concept to creation, we’ve linked up with Brookstone Launch, an end-to-end product development, manufacturing and retail launch program, to help Indiegogo-funded ideas come to life.
Technology and design projects on Indiegogo can now apply for special access to resources and expertise from Brookstone before, during and after funding.
These products must fall within Brookstone’s core product focus areas (technology, wellness, home, travel) and have demonstrated strong market validation and customer demand through their Indiegogo campaigns.
Products involved with Indiegogo’s Brookstone partnership will also have the opportunity to be sold in Brookstone’s retail and online stores nationwide. Starting November 16, 2015 and just in time for the holiday season, 9 Indiegogo-funded products will be available either in stores or online at Brookstone, including:
- AIRTAME Wireless Display Device – raised $1.5M from 14k backers
- Axent Wear Cat Ear Headphones – raised $3.4M from 20k backers
- Beddit Smart Sleep Monitor – raised $500k from 3.9k backers
- Bluesmart Smart Suitcase – raised $2.2M from 10k backers
- Canary Home Security – raised $1.9M from 7.4k backers
- Fizzics Beer System – raised $223k from 1.7k backers
- Ghost Drone – raised $850k from 1.9k backers
- JamStik Smart Guitar – raised $178k from 841 backer
- TrackR Bravo Tracking Device – raised $1.6M from 24k backers
These innovative products showcase how Indiegogo has democratized the way new ideas are discovered and funded. Our new collaboration with Brookstone will give successful campaigners the opportunity and resources needed to effectively bring their products from concept to market. Yours could be next.

Possibly the worst idea i have ever heard off INDIOGOGO stay out of it just sumply the wenbsite and stay out of it all – wander what projects will be push by you guys ours or the ones your involved in.
I received a faulty product and their customer service won’t do anything about it! Not to mention that the inital early adopters paid more than what they are selling it for now.
Brookstone is going to ruin Indiegogo!!!!!!!
Lowering the price that betray all the backers.
Missing backer’s pack more than a month.
The worst Customer Care Center I have ever met, replyed with a wrong track number to proof they are already shipped the product.
This is a TERRIBLE idea!
Brookstone have -massively- screwed up the manufacture and sale of the Axent Wear Cat-Ear headphones, lowering the price-point and utilising shoddy construction methods. You can’t seriously think that allowing these con artists to poison MORE indiegogo projects is a good idea?!
God, this is a mistake: I hoped that Indiegogo would hold Brookstone and Axent Wear acountable for their terrible business practices, not form a partnership with them!
