First International Workshop on Enterprise Crowdsourcing, Vienna, Austria
Crowdsourcing is the phenomenon where an online population provides the bulk of the content for a website. Encouraged by the expansion of Web 2.0 and social networking, crowdsourcing has become an industry in its own right.
Web 2.0 provides the technological foundations upon which the crowdsourcing paradigm evolves and operates, enabling 'networked experts' to work collaboratively to complete specific tasks. Enterprise crowdsourcing poses interesting challenges for both academic and industrial research along with its social, legal, and technological dimensions.
The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners to facilitate stimulating discussions on the different aspects of crowdsourcing. Delegates will be encouraged to help identify emerging topics and challenges within the enterprise crowdsourcing paradigm and to provide a forum for further exploration and advancement in the enterprise domain.
The workshop will also seek to better understand emerging business models and opportunities, while identifying how existing business processes can most efficiently adopt the crowdsourcing model.For further information, please visit:
