Solve real buisness problems with more, diverse ideas

smartcrowds Ideas takes the complexity out of idea crowdsourcing using a set of out-of the-box idea challenge templates and common organisational crowd structures that can be easily and rapidly customised for publication to the people who know your products and services best - your intrapreneurs (employees) and extrapreneurs (customers/partners/suppliers)
