“…The knowledge gap on the other sources of funding available to small and medium-sized enterprises in Nigeria has led this paper to focus on crowdfunding as an alternative form of finance, providing knowledge on crowdfunding for academics, small and medium-sized enterprises, and project initiators. According to Hossain (2015), crowdfunding is still scarce and sketches in literature, and as an entrepreneur's financial focus, it is not popular in developing countries like Nigeria. Only a few of the Crowd Funding studies have been conducted in developed countries.…”

This study presented a bibliometric examination of the crowdsourcing publications. The objective of this study is to bibliometrically examine the publications related to crowdsourcing in the Science Citation Index Expanded of the Web of Science. A systematic search has been carried out for publications between 2008 and 2017. The parameters analysed included document type, language, most prolific journal, leading countries/territories, institutions and authors in terms of total publications, independent publications, collaborative publications, first authors, corresponding authors and single authors. Highly cited articles and the future direction of hot topics are also investigated. 81 per cent of the total publications are articles. English remains the dominant language and accounted for nearly 100 per cent of the total output. The USA, China and the UK produced 80 per cent of total production. PLOS One was leading journal in terms of total output and total citation till 2016. It was found that 1459 articles, including 1347 first authors, 1443 corresponding authors and 79 single authors, were published by 6973 authors. Fritz Steffen and See Linda were the most prolific authors. This paper will be useful for researchers to know the current trends and achievements of crowd - sourcing research.

“…Although crowdsourcing is growing in popularity (Bonabeau, 2009; Howe, 2006), and so is research into the phenomenon (Hossain, 2015; Kietzmann, 2017; Zhao and Zhu, 2014b), there is no integrated body of research investigating its application to grand challenges. One study by Thies et al (2011) investigates paid crowdsourcing via platforms such as MTurk as a means for global development.…”

Technology is enabling organizations across the globe – large and small, for-profit and not-for-profit, governments and scientific groups – to harness the resources, knowledge, talent and creativity of crowds, in their effort to find innovative solutions to vexing problems. As contributors to solving grand challenges, crowds are providing data and funds, generating novel ideas and evaluating and developing concrete solutions. This article proposes a conceptual model for understanding the utility of crowdsourcing in the context of grand challenges. The article further identifies some boundary conditions where crowdsourcing may not be useful and discusses significant barriers to applying crowdsourcing in the Asia-Pacific region. We conclude by recognizing some empirical considerations and avenues for future research. JEL Classification: O31, O35
