Vote: Crowdsoucing Final Logo Decision for "Clean Economies"
I'm in the process of launching a side project called "Clean Economies" and need your help selecting the final logo. We've crowdsourced the design on 99designs.com and its been a fun and interesting experience to see how the model works. Over 3 days, we received nearly 300 logo submissions from 33 different designers! All we did was launch a competition on the site and provided a prize of $295 to the winning designer.
I'll be writing several posts on best practices and lessons learned in the process later. But, in the meantime, we need your help choosing the winning design. We haven't fully conceptualized and solidified the pitch, but here is the start of it to keep in mind before voting below.
Clean Economies will predominantly be an online forum, blog, and monthly event that discusses how we can re-engineer and build more sustainable economies. It's not only about reducing our carbon footprint, its about making sure the entire world has sufficient access to clean water(over 1 billion people currently don't), utilizing resources more effectively by matching supply and demand through crowdsourcing, producing better software and products through open source methodologies, enhancing collaboration and bringing different layers of socioeconomic classes together, building sustainable architecture that's self sufficient and designed to work with the environment, fostering entrepreneurship, creating better healthcare systems, commercializing technology, and ultimately focusing on new models that not only aid businesses, but aid the general well being of society and environment.
Each event will focus on a panel discussion with industry experts, investors, entrepreneurs, and related leaders in emerging fields. We're considering doing our first event on water purification and the need for ecosystems to bring clean water to a billion people who don't have sufficient access.
Anyway, please vote on your favorite design below. We'd appreciate your vote and any feedback you may have in the comments.
