Zenia Tata is an Executive Director at XPRIZE leading the organization’s global expansion, starting with a recent launch in India. XPRIZE is a highly leveraged, incentivized prize competition that pushes the limits of what’s possible — to change the world for the better.  Zenia has been working for over 21 years in business development and program design for not-for-profit organizations and social enterprises. Her work has spanned 17 countries in Asia, Africa and Central America with issues ranging from land rights for the poor, rural education, medical technology design for base-of-pyramid markets, reduction of maternal and neonatal mortality and community adaptation to climate change.

Through XPRIZE, Zenia is working to mobilize crowds through incentivized competitions to address humanity’s grandest needs.

On the chat we will talk to Zenia about:

  • Problem solving potential of communities
  • Can crowds be better than experts?
  • What XPRIZE hopes to achieve in India & Asia?
  • How can YOU be involved?
  • and more!

How can you get more out of #Crowdchat?
