4. What our customers say about us...
“Crowdicity allowed the BBC to quickly launch an idea management
system to provide insight from suppliers about a system in use. Via the use
of collaboration, it meant that duplication of issues were minimised and it
was easy to filter out the important issues. The flexibility of the system
enabled this and meant avoidance of utilising a bespoke build."
Rubin Shah, BBC Future Media and Technology
“After extensive scrutiny in Crowdicity we have found the ideal solution
and business partner. It is a brilliant piece of software backed by a hugely
credible team. Crowdicity allows us to be ahead of the curve.”
Patrick Buckley MRICS, Propeagle.com
5. What our customers say about us...
“We use Crowdicity as an organisational development intervention as we
wanted to engage all staff across the RCN in generating ideas for the
development of our organisational development strategy and ideas to
develop actions plans following our staff survey.
We have been delighted with how Crowdicity has generated 100’s of ideas
in less than three months of using it. It has created good conversations
about those things that matter to staff. Crowdicity has generated a lot of
excitement across the organisation.
It’s value for money because as a UK wide organisation we would have
never engaged as many staff and would have to have travelled a lot to
meet with staff to generate the ideas. As a method of engaging with your
staff Crowdicity is a great creative tool”
Geraldine Cunningham, Head of the Learning and
Development . Royal College of Nursing
6. What our customers say about us...
"Crowdsourcing represents a great way of ensuring all staff have the
opportunity to have their views heard. We've used Crowdicity previously
and recognised some genuinely tangible benefits. We are hoping our
second experience of crowdsourcing will also encourage an atmosphere of
best practice and ideas submitted will once again snowball into ideas
implemented."
Matthew Batten, Customer Service Project Manager,RCN
“We have been extremely pleased with the response from participants to
using Crowdicity as our online communication tool. It has enabled
colleagues to share ideas and thoughts with ease. As a vehicle for
collaboration, it is excellent and has enabled a large number of
participants to work together in a truly innovative fashion.”
Phil Hughes, Educational Consultant for Catapulting Kids

7. What our customers say about us...
“Crowdicity opens the door to a more productive and enjoyable method of
idea development and promotion that challenges the more traditional and
expensive models.”
Review by Ramon Youseph, The Daily Crowdsource No1 site for
Crowdsourcing in the US
“We have captured some great IT Innovation Ideas using Crowdicity.”

8. Crowdicity Case Studies
• The Wellcome Trust is one of the world’s biggest charities, focussed on supporting the brightest
minds in biomedical research and the medical humanities.
• In conjunction with Deloitte, Crowdicity delivered the innovation platform for the Wellcome Trust’s IT
“Innovation Week” to contribute ideas towards the trust’s IT Strategy in the coming years, supporting
the wider engagement Deloitte is doing with the Executive Board members.
• Crowdicity was selected by Deloitte for it’s speed and ease of adoption, simplicity of use, resilience,
security levels and market leading customer service.
• Crowdicity succeeded in helping the Wellcome Trust break out of ‘silo’ thinking by opening up
challenges to a diverse cluster of internal and partner stakeholders, stimulating new points of view
and overcoming the geographical and departmental boundaries that exist within the Trust.
• The project resulted in 68 shortlisted original ideas with prizes for the top 5 ideas and best
contributors.
• The success of the project has resulted in 5 further projects currently in discussion with the
Wellcome Trust and Wellcome Collection

16. “
.. It provides a forum for anyone – anyone – to get
involved with the nano debate. If you are excited,
concerned, or just plain confused about nanotech—this
is the place for you to make your voice heard.
Nano & Me is a work in progress, and users are
encouraged to chip in their thoughts on where it can be
improved. But even so, it’s pretty slick…..at this point,
it’s the best all-round go-to place for information and
ideas on nanotechnology. My recommendation: Use it!
