Dear Mr. Podesta, I am writing to you in your role as Chair of the Hillary Clinton Campaign as well as Founder of the Center for American Progress. My name is Heiner Koppermann and I am the CEO of SwarmWorks, Inc., a company specializing in developing and deploying state-of-the-art technologies to constructively involve every individual in even very large live meetings. I believe that we could make a very signifiant contribution to engaging and mobilizing audiences in the context of the campaign you are chairing as well as the CAP. Using our technologies, we have supported numerous international large corporate and citizen conventions and made it possible that otherwise passive participants can actively contribute to the conference by asking questions, identifying their most burning issues, jointly developing ideas, engaging in a dialogue with speakers and much more. That way, our products offer several applications to overcome the wide and growing disconnect between regular people and the political class. If you are interested to further discuss what is possible using our technologies and formats, please let me know and we can arrange for a live demonstration of our capabilities. Some relevant highlights: In 2013, together with a political party in Germany, we developed and ran the world's largest interactive citizens' conference involving hundreds of citizens working on six separate political issues and coming up with consolidated consensual suggestions to be integrated into the manifesto of the party. The event received > 92% extremely positive feedback even from those citizens that were card-carriers of parties different from the party organizing the conference and generated lots of positive PR for them. In 2011, we set a new record for the largest event ever - 6,500 people - where and everyone was individually involved using one of our proprietary technologies.
