Ideavibes and Placespeak invite you to an interactive workshop on the power of the crowd and its ability
to solve problems, build stronger market-driven products, engage citizens, and fund change as well as
start-ups. Crowdsourcing, although not new, is something organizations as diverse as global brands, social
enterprises and civic and national governments can use to involve the crowd to make things happen.
Topics to be covered:
• Practical Crowdsourcing – what is it and how can you use it?
• Social media and its part in engaging and mobilizing crowds.
• Citizen Engagement through crowdsourcing – successful case studies.
• How to tap into the conversations that are already going on to make better decisions.
• Crowdsourcing and Place – mapping the conversations for citizen engagement.
• What is social product development? How can that help you acquire new customers?
• Best practices and how to implement in your organization. How to satisfy the skeptics.
Breakfast and refreshments included.
