Gaining such insight will aid future development of crowdworking and subsequently help increase its impact to the advantage of different stakeholders involved.

The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
