HeroX provides the platform where sponsors design challenges around problems they need solved, and solvers create the solution and win a prize.

Whether you are an individual, a small business, a nonprofit organization, a government agency, or a multinational corporation, HeroX can help you design and run challenges around problems that need to be solved. With a do-it-yourself approach, challenge sponsors can take advantage of HeroX’s extensive knowledge base of templates, best practices, and other platform resources to build and run challenges themselves. Other challenge sponsors with less bandwidth and/or less experience can select from a menu of services that support challenge design, crowdbuilding, project management, and other challenge-related activities.

Once a challenge is live on the platform, individuals and teams from around the world can participate and share their best ideas. Solvers choose to participate based on their interest, and expertise. Those submitting the best solutions can win a range of prizes, including monetary awards, special opportunities, exclusive experiences, and the satisfaction of serving the greater community. This egalitarian approach means that solutions might come from anyone, regardless of title, training, or geographic location.

The combination of sponsors and participants on a globally available platform results in ground-breaking solutions from all around the world.
