Cost of Innovation Reduced

Harnessing the Creative Genius of the World

Thanks to crowdsourcing, companies are saving time and money by accessing great minds on a project-by-project basis through services like IdeaConnection.com.

Saving the overhead of recruitment, research and development departments are using the collaborative problem solving abilities of the thousands of experts who have signed up at IdeaConnection.com.

A carefully selected but diverse group of experienced inventors, innovators, and problem solvers, along with a facilitator, are available to work online together in the IdeaConnection™ ThinkSpace™. This proprietary software encourages a creative innovation process with its gentle but disciplined workflow and ‘thinking tools’.

The risk of innovating is reduced. Companies pay for solutions that they accept. If their problem is not solved to their satisfaction, their funds are returned, minus a service fee to cover the costs IdeaConnection™ incurs in coordinating the process.

According to A.C Lafley, the CEO of Procter and Gamble: “No company today, no matter how large or global, can innovate fast enough or big enough by itself.”

Scott Wurtele, founder and CEO IdeaConnection.com, says: “Unlike InnoCentive or YourEncore, where many individuals tackle a problem separately, our experts work collaboratively. Another big difference is our teams are not made up only of scientists and engineers. We know diversity produces more and better creative solutions.”

IdeaConnection’s breakthrough service and technology provides smart companies with benefits that include no recruitment costs, low financial risk, and the ability to expand their research and development departments without hiring full-time staff.
