And here is your chance to follow the top opinion leaders globally. We have put together an exhaustive list of 411 influencers that comprises #Crowd411 based on the following criteria:
- their influence on crowd economy’s development
- popularity and scale of content they provide
- commitment to the advancement of sharing economy – no empty words, action!
- adoption of crowd culture norms such as share ability, openness
- geographic and crowd segment representation
Sean Moffitt, Managing Director of CSW2 and Wikibrands, the driving force behind the #CROWD411 directory, explains the reasoning behind the need for such a list.
“We’ve literally spent months pulling together our Crowd 411 having pored over hundreds, if not thousands, of names and evaluating against our 5 key criteria.” Why? “Simply, with an amazing global pool of talent that reside in the crowd economy, we thought there was a need to curate not just the most popular, but the best of the world’s crowd collective. For all their sweat equity and pioneering work, they deserve to be profiled. And in the spirit of participative crowd culture, we hope to collaborate with many of those on the list in the future.”
