HeroX Launches ImpactCrowd to Assist Nonprofits Tap the Power of the Crowd

HeroX, the world's largest crowdsourced innovation platform, announced the introduction of ImpactCrowd, a new initiative to work with charities, NGOs, and mission-driven organizations to use crowdsourcing for social impactfully. Crowdsourcing, which has long been used by well-funded charities such as XPRIZE, is a tried and true method of finding practical answers to many of the world's most difficult issues. ImpactCrowd makes crowdsourcing accessible to nonprofits of all sizes by providing free access to the HeroX platform.

Nonprofits often lack the resources to invest in R&D and innovation. This is where the HeroX platform comes in: by harnessing the power of the crowd, charities can build cross-sector relationships, discover new solutions to long-standing issues, and explore innovative, multi-disciplinary ways to accomplishing their organization's mission.

ImpactCrowd will concentrate on the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), often known as the "Global Goals," established in 2015. The SDGs are a global call to action to eliminate poverty, preserve the environment, and ensure that all people live in peace and prosperity by 2030.

Crowdsourcing's worldwide reach links the appropriate people to produce discoveries, using the strength of millions of brains and is accessible to everyone. Participating organizations will draw from a diverse pool of innovators, and the prize money will be paid only once the issue has been addressed. This implies that charities can take risks in finding and sourcing solutions to long-standing issues.

Participating organizations will be given access to the HeroX platform and access to its worldwide innovation network and campaign assistance from HeroX's team of crowdsourcing experts. HeroX is also looking for interesting supporting partners.
