How to problem solve – the ultimate problem with Mindhive

"If we can crowdsource a bottle of wine to make it cheaper for the citizenry in Australia, why can't we crowdsource the intellectual capital in Australia to bring that to the problem in Australia. So the beginning of the technology was something of a ISP platform or crowdsourcing and crowdfunding type of idea.

So what we ended up building, was ideas like Gumtree in which it was a quick upload of a challenge, a little bit of E-harmony and RSVP.com idea for the search of experts that match the challenge needs. So the ability for users to search for experts on a skills based, on an interest based.

The biggest thing that was the driver for most organisations these days was limited resources in government and increasing pressure on University and consultancy houses dealing with the fragmentation expertise. Was the demonstration of the problem solve… the impact."
