Cambrian House

Cambrian House is home to the world’s first crowdsourcing community: a diverse collective of creative, tech-savvy and entrepreneurial minds. Cambrian House is Community Owned. We’re the first Web 2.0 company where members are owners. Members earn Glory Points for participating by posting in our forums, submitting or commenting on ideas and businesses, and other worthy feats.

Crowdsourcing was coined by Jeff Howe of Wired Magazine in 2006 to describe a business model in which a company or institution takes a job traditionally performed by an employee and outsources it to an undefined, generally large group of people in the form of an open call over the internet.
