CrowdWorx pilots pure-science research project in Prediction Markets

Together with students from the University of Economics in Poznan Analyx is launching a pilot project on scientific research in prediction markets called Poznan Electronic Markets (paying tribute to the original Iowa Electronic Markets at the University of Iowa).

This pilot project is intended to test the feasibility of applied long-term research in prediction markets. For instance, we need to establish how large an operational crew we would need or if there are enough people at the university interested in prediciton markets (PM) – both traders who would play as well as scientists who would find PM a worthwhile topic for research.

The PEM inaugural lecture on Monday 18th May 2009

The project is kindly supported by Special Interest Groups (SIG) from the university, in particular the SIG sknprofit. Thanks guys, we’re looking forward to making PEM a success!
