The mission of this team of Internet and software veterans is to “…enable all of us to solve important social problems through crowd-funding and crowd-sourcing.” They identified three steps in their Challenge process:
- “Define an audacious goal”
- “Specify a prize or reward amount”
- “Define the winning criteria”
- “Inspire others to support the Challenge”
“Historically, incentive challenges and competitions with significant prizes or rewards have resulted in quantum-leap progress and innovation. Traditionally only a select few large organizations have used this tool. Now it’s time to put this power into the hands of everyone.”
