Jack Allerts, Chief Operations & Finance explains: “We started our platform for Open Innovation six months ago, and since then we have received many good ideas and suggestions from innovators all over the world.”
Companies that subscribe for an Innovation Box before March 31st, 2008, will get the following benefits (24 months for FREE):
– An innovation box to receive and manage ideas from consumers and creative minds worldwide
– A widget (for the company website) to direct visitors to the innovation box
– Hosting and maintenance of the innovation box (ASP model)
– Active promotion in Fellowforce marketing campaigns and mailings
– Exposure via logo and text message
– International terms & conditions
– The freedom to reward when the company deems it appropriate
For Polish innovators (Fellows) this is the chance to share their ideas:
– These companies are really looking for collaboration and co-creation (ideas, suggestions and feedback)
– All postings will be reviewed by company decision makers
– Rewards will be paid if ideas are unique and improve business
The first companies are already connected, among them, the ASTORIA GROUP, a Polish company focusing on marketing services outsourcing. And, the first ideas have been posted.
Allerts concludes: “With an Innovation Box, companies are making a statement that they take open innovation seriously, and that they value consumers for their ideas in addition to their wallets. Our open innovation platform is the only one geared toward any business, from the smallest to the largest. We believe that the above offering is extremely interesting for Polish companies. It is open innovation made EASY and for FREE.”
