Quote

"Got an idea? Today’s guest on All Business with Jeffrey Hayzlett can help bring it to fruition. Christian Cotichini is the co-founder and CEO of HeroX, a crowdsourcing platform that will actually pay you for your ideas. While it’s not about the money, their goal is to get ideas from anyone that help solve problems through technology. The best part? You don’t need a Ph.D. to be part of the solution. Christian says companies as diverse as the NFL to Lululemon and several U.S. government agencies use HeroX. Also, don’t confuse crowdsourcing with crowdfunding. He’ll tell you why. If you’ve ever wanted to tap the power of the crowd for solutions, listen to this episode of All Business with Jeffrey Hayzlett."
