This project performs an in-depth analysis of Kickstarter crowdfunding campaigns to identify trends, success factors, and funding patterns. Using Python, Pandas, Matplotlib, and Power BI, the analysis uncovers key insights into successful vs. failed campaigns, helping creators optimize their fundraising strategies.
- Analyzed 380,000+ Kickstarter campaigns across various categories, funding goals, and success rates.
- Identified top-performing categories, with Technology and Games projects raising the highest funds.
- Success rate trends: Campaigns with a well-defined goal, shorter duration, and strong social media presence had 30-40% higher success rates.
- Location impact: US-based projects secured 60%+ of total Kickstarter funding, with New York and California being top contributors.
- Visualization: Created interactive Power BI dashboards for real-time data exploration.
✔ Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) using Python & Pandas
