Crowdsourcing Summit 2021

Insights. Challenges. Opportunities

Work is transforming…

and the enterprises need to adapt!

9-to-5 job is coming to an end. Technology enables more variations

There will be more freelancers than employees by 2035

Traditional corporations will evolve dramatically in line with this trend

Join the
discussion!

Technology and new business models are changing the very concept of work. Combined with a generation of talent that uses these opportunities to provide them with freedom to choose location and flexible work hours, crowdsourcing becomes a topic that most companies need to address.

Crowdsourcing present opportunities that can be leveraged immediately.

The summit will, among other things, focus on how sourcing of individual freelancers or crowds can deliver innovation, agility and speed in tried and tested ways.

In addition to sharing learnings from companies that already engage in crowdsourcing, there will be opportunities to engage with Danish and international platforms.

Anders Sørensen

Business Development Enemærke and Petersen

I am an experienced professional working in the area where the tasks of innovation management (creating and commercializing inventions) meet the tasks of technology management (external and internal creation and retention of technological know-how). I have a strong drive for designing and leading R&D processes, as well as demonstrated success in managing R&D organizations and ensuring smooth transfer of new knowhow and technology to other departments involved in innovation.

In having a background from social sciences, I have adapted a more interdisciplinary and heterogeneous oriented approach than my fellow engineers and technicians have had, and thereby improved innovation project excellence and business impact.

My proven project management expertise and track record is supported by my ability to quickly and easily establish effective relationships with people across all levels and at the same time securing project funding - often through national and international funding instruments.
