Crowdsourcing Week Prepares for Singapore

CrowdsourcingWeekSingaporeWith only a few days left before their 2nd annual event commences in Singapore, Crowdsourcing Week – CSW Global 2014 – is putting the finishing touches on their gathering  where crowdsourcing and the crowd economy come together.  The event will take place from April 7th to 11th at the Genexis Theater in Fusionopolis.

Crowdsourcing Week is committed to help organizations transition into a more open, connected, and socially productive society. They focus on how crowdsourcing can address the needs of today’s leaders to bring about meaningful change. Their big, ambitious goal is to get everyone thinking about collaborating with their stakeholders to create and increase shared value.

Epirot Ludvik NekajFounded by Epi Ludvik Nekaj, an early believer in the potential crowdsourcing, Epi created Ludvik+Partners in 2008, a boutique virtual ad agencies built on a 100% crowdsourcing model. The idea for something bigger took seed when Ludvik+Partners and Collective Bias organized the event ‘How Crowdsourcing is Changing the Advertising Business’ during Internet Week 2011. Epi understood that engagement and knowledge transfer in this space could help organizations overcome their shortcomings and create real stakeholder value. Crowdsourcing Week was founded in 2012 and since then has launched a flagship global conference, organized crowdsourcing summits across three continents, built around a global movement.
