We present a constant-factor approximation algorithm for the Nash social welfare maximization problem with subadditive valuations accessible via demand queries. More generally, we propose a template for NSW optimization by solving a configuration-type LP and using a rounding procedure for (utilitarian) social welfare as a blackbox, which could be applicable to other variants of the problem.
