Brief description of the business idea:

echo is an internet project for citizen empowerment. Our goal is to establish a new form of participatory democracy on the very local, as well as on the regional and global level.

echo opens up a new era of democratic collaboration. It enables engaged citizens, experts, representatives and their organizations to take part in solution-oriented discussions and mobilize supporters to jointly turn their decisions into reality. echo's novel discussion method thereby lets, for the first time, collective intelligence emerge in a democratic public discourse even with a nearly unlimited number of participants. In this way, echo empowers people all over the world to collaborate in a constructive manner and jointly determine their very local living space, as well as the future of our common world. Additionally, echo's Your-Profit philosophy effectively supports people to successfully achieve their goals.

By facilitating new means of transnational and intercultural collaboration, echo aims to foster a global consciousness and smoothen the path towards a peaceful, equitable and sustainable future.
