About Crowded Hero

Introducing CrowdedHero, a Latvian-based innovator in the field of equity crowdfunding. Founded on a rich bedrock of experience and a fresh approach to equity-based financing, CrowdedHero is committed to democratizing high-level investment services, making them accessible to everyone.

CrowdedHero challenges the traditional focus of equity crowdfunding, which has predominantly centered on startups and early-stage companies. Born from the founders’ extensive experience with the Eventus Group—a leading corporate finance group in the Baltics—CrowdedHero was inspired by the vast untapped potential they saw in equity-based financing for a broader range of business stages.

Our platform is not just about funding; it’s about fostering growth and offering a mature, knowledgeable approach to investment. CrowdedHero enables investors to engage with both nascent companies, which may only have an idea and a prototype, and more mature enterprises that benefit from meticulous growth tracking and management.

By leveraging deep market knowledge and experience with diverse business models, CrowdedHero provides an active investment-management approach previously unavailable to the general investing public. Join us to discover how your investment can make a real impact on the growth trajectory of promising companies.

About Crowdsourcing Week

Pioneering the Crowd Economy

Crowdsourcing Week is your global activation partner for the Crowd Economy, a collaborative platform that empowers bold changemakers to drive innovation through crowdsourcing, open innovation, and the sharing economy.

Founded in 2012 by Epi Ludvik, a visionary who recognized the transformative potential of crowdsourcing early on, Crowdsourcing Week has been at the forefront of the Crowd Economy movement. Ludvik's journey began in 2008 when he established Ludvik+Partners, one of New York's hottest boutique virtual ad agencies built on a 100% crowdsourcing model. The idea for something bigger took root when Ludvik+Partners and Collective Bias organized the groundbreaking event, "How Crowdsourcing is Changing the Advertising Business," during Internet Week in New York City in 2011.

Driven by the belief that engagement and knowledge transfer in this space could help organizations overcome their shortcomings and create real stakeholder value, Crowdsourcing Week launched its first Global Conference in Singapore in June 2013. Since then, the company has organized three flagship global conferences, over 30 crowdsourcing summits in 25 countries across four continents, and built a global movement around the Crowd Economy.

Today, Crowdsourcing Week is proud to have launched the BOLD Awards (bold-awards.com), a global platform that celebrates and recognizes bold innovators who are shaping the future of the Crowd Economy. With a focus on crowdsourcing, open innovation, crowdfunding, and the sharing economy, Crowdsourcing Week (https://crowdsourcingweek.com/) continues to be a driving force in this rapidly evolving industry.
