What is all the talk about crowdsourcing? And how do you build a successful business model around it? Philipp Benkler, Managing Director and co-founder of Testbirds, will speak about how they got an idea, collected some friends and turned the idea in to Europe’s leading crowdtesting provider.

The talk will guide you through the crowdsourcing startup scene, with real examples from Testbirds journey – from the spark of an idea until now. After this breakfast seminar, you will know all about building a crowd, creating an innovative business model and what crowdtesting actually means.

Philipp Benkler is based in Munich, Germany. Before starting the company with his friends Georg Hansbauer and Markus Steinhauser, he worked as a freelance software developer and in companies such as Siemens and KPMG. When he is not working around the clock to make Testbirds the world’s leading testing company, he spends his free time on boards, whether it’s snowboarding in winter or kitesurfing during summer (Next destination: kite surfing in Visby, Gotland!).

The seminar will be held in English.
