Company Description In 2004, James Surowiecki published The Wisdom of Crowds. The central thesis of his book is that a diverse collection of people is likely to make certain decisions and predictions better than independently operating individuals or even experts. Furthermore, the outcomes of work are better when a group of motivated individuals collaborates (Tongal) as opposed to when a small committee of like-minded individuals or “experts” influences the decisions of those working under them.
Proceeds Purposes Tongal plans to use the funding to accelerate the build-out of its premiere global creative community and to support plans for rapid expansion.
