Two questions about web entrepreneurship:
1. Where are we at?
2. In which direction are we moving?
HR specialized according to various stages and support processes of the web enterprise value chain.
Value chain’s primary processes: requirement analysis; graphic design; web development; quality assurance
Value chain’s support processes: HR; accounting; business development; I.T. support
1– Human Capital
WEB ENTERPRISE — conventional paradigm
WEB ENTERPRISE — novel facilities
Most value chain functions may now be externalized … … and sourced through online outsourcing and crowdsourcing marketplaces, e.g.
Freelancer.com; oDesk.com; Elance.com; Guru.com; PeoplePerHour.com; Freelance.com; 99designs.com; Amazon Mechanical Turk (mturk.com); crowdSPRING.com; etc.

WEB ENTERPRISE — novel facilities
raised along traditional entrepreneurial cycle and capitalization rounds, turning to financial backers such as:
the founders of the enterprise,

venture capital funds,
etc.
3– Financial Assets
WEB ENTERPRISE — conventional paradigm
Business ideas are submitted to crowdfunding websites and reach out to crowds of potential funders.
Typically used to help early-stage startups access finance.
Examples: Kickstarter.com; AngelList (angel.co); Crowdfunder.com; WeFunder.com; Indiegogo.com; Kiva.org; etc.
3– Financial Assets… … through crowdfunding
WEB ENTERPRISE — novel facilities
These novel entrepreneurship facilities:
hold a “disruptive” power,
blurring the boundaries of the enterprise
challenging the theory of the firm and the traditional approach of strategic management
Three Case Studies:
1. Crowdsourcing: Microsoft Security Essentials turning to utest for a test campaign
2. Open innovation — How EnterpriseWorks turned to InnoCentive to solve a rainwater collection problem
3. Crowdfunding — online advocacy and legislative data platform Popvox turned to crowdfunding site appback
1. Test lead for Microsoft Security Essentials turns to crowdsourcing service provider utest to help implement test cycles.
2. A sample of testers is selected among utest’s crowd of 20,000+ testers
3. Test cycle #1: exploratory testing
4. Test cycle #2-#3-#4: installation-upgrade-regression
Microsoft Security Essentials
1. EnterpriseWorks turns to InnoCentive
2. Challenge: Provide a safe, low cost rainwater collection and storage system (no more than USD 20)
3. Challenge award: US$ 15,000 implying transfer of intellectual property rights to EnterpriseWorks
4. 1,200 InnoCentive Solvers indicated interest
5. 164 proposals collected, in 60 days
6. A German inventor, whose company specialises in the design of tourist submarines, wins by proposing the simplest design: a double plastic bag!
Solving a rainwater collection problem
1. CEO of Popvox Marci Harris, a nonpartisan platform for advocacy and legislative data, plans to create a mobile version of Popvox for Congress to use.
