Future of Work – Crowd Sourcing
Leading representatives, selected country patrons and well established experts from more all European countries will critically discuss new models of employment and future forms of cooperative innovation and financing. Driven by agile global competition and the demand for more flexible and open structures, companies are increasingly challenged to keep pace with the constantly changing requirements of working-time-models that attract young professionals.
Alternative Financing – Crowd Funding
Designated industry experts, such as Austria´s country patron Reinhard Willfort will take the participants on a journey into the world of finance clusters, and show how to use a crowd related model to finance ideas and innovation. Today and in the near future more flexible financing solutions will be needed to raise equity or outside capital. At the same time those solutions will offer the chance of possible higher interest rates versus conventional forms of investment. Crowd Dialog Europe will challenge the speakers and experts to illuminate the opportunities and risks, and put them into a national and European regulatory context.
Agile Development – Crowd Innovation
Innovation is the engine of every economy and industry section and will continue to change the world more quickly and profoundly then ever before. Experts from all over Europe will analyze current trends for more “innovationship“ and critically reflect the intersections to artificial intelligence vs human innovation potentials.
