Two companies ally to provide greater breadth of crowdsourcing engagements for public and private enterprises
Ottawa, ON – Calgary-based Chaordix and Ottawa’s Intersol Group Ltd are pleased to announce a partnership to bring new crowdsourcing capabilities and programs to the Canadian public and private sectors. Crowdsourcing uses web 2.0 technology to rapidly and affordably reach a global crowd, engage their interest, manage and filter their ideas and feedback, and help choose the most appropriate ideas on which to act.
The partnership pairs global leader Chaordix’s crowdsourcing experience and program offering with the leadership of Intersol, one of the country’s top facilitation and stakeholder engagement firms. This team will bring world-class crowd engagement to organizations of all types across Canada.
"We're excited to team up with a globally successful Canadian partner, harness crowdsourcing and take our clients to the next level of online collaboration," added Carlo Aiello, CEO of Intersol. "In these tough economic times, clients are doubly challenged to make the most of time and money. This partnership will help accelerate innovation by plugging clients directly into the wisdom of the crowd.”
The new arrangement will leverage Chaordix’s award-winning Crowd Intelligence™ programs with the involvement of Intersol’s engagement experts to create an unparalleled solution. This solution will be able to tap into the power of the crowd with the most advanced technology and methodologies.
"Our Crowd Intelligence programs are dramatically enhancing how organizations connect with their stakeholders and involve them in innovation, finding solutions, and understanding the market opportunity at a much deeper level.” said Randy Corke, Chaordix’s Vice President of Business Development. “With Intersol’s top people and its reputation, we’re looking to help out organizations right here in Canada."
