Crowd Culture: Crowdfunding for creative projects
Cultural workers can seek public funding while members help direct how it is allocated.

The idea
Crowd Culture, a crowdfunding portal, combined traditional crowdfunding with the ability for cultural workers to seek public funding. By pooling private money from members and federal money from the Swedish cultural budget, the platform enables the public to have a direct impact on cultural financing. Members vote on projects, and their votes decide how public funds are allocated.
What we built
We took over the Crowd Culture project to enhance user engagement and improve core functionality.
- Badge system Awards active users with three levels of badges across different categories, using game theory principles to increase participation in project activities
- Platform improvements Improved site functionality and overall user experience
- Community engagement Incentivizes users to contribute more actively
The result
The badge system boosted user engagement and participation. The platform became more interactive, encouraging users to support cultural projects more actively. Performance and reliability improvements made it easier to navigate and participate in crowdfunding activities. The enhancements contributed to the successful realization of cultural projects.
Team of IT House very quickly responded to our needs and implemented them in the portal. Process of development ran very smoothly.
