Carl Lens’s Summary

I am passionate about the enormous creativity of people on the web. The internet is not only the place to find new ideas, it is a medium for collaboration that creates a potential we are only beginning to comprehend.

CreativeCrowds is a venture that helps organizations to embrace the ideas of users. Our vision is that organizations should engage online communities in their processes. Our platform allows companies to ask for the ideas of online communities. By putting out challenges companies gain great ideas, engage users and develop consumer insight.

We organize SocialStrategyTalk, an event meant to bring together a community of SocialStrategists across governments, corporates, entrepreneurs and non-profit. Join our community and visit the quarterly meetings.
