The NYU Center for Business Analytics (CBA) and Professor Anindya Ghose are all set to host Crowds 2.0: New Frontiers in Crowdfunding + Crowdsourcing this Friday, May 9th at the NYU Stern School of Business. We’re sponsoring the event, as well as producing the two live Google+ Hangout On Air broadcasts for both the morning and afternoon sessions.
The website describes the event’s topics as follows: “Crowdfunding and crowdsourcing continue to disrupt and transform markets, offering unique access to capital, talent and investment opportunities. Join industry and faculty experts as they share cutting edge research and best practices. What is next for crowdfunding and crowdsourcing? We will examine these platforms and will explore how they impact individuals, organizations, markets and the economy as a whole.”
