March 2010 Sponsor - Brightidea

Thank you to Brightidea for sponsoring Blogging Innovation for March 2010.

Brightidea is the market leader in On-Demand Innovation Management. Over 300 businesses around the world use its Software-as-a-Service suite to transform their employee, partner and customer ideas into a reality. The Brightidea platform is a flexible, scalable, and standards-based system that provides end-to-end tracking of the innovation process from concept through to realization. The company's software has been successfully deployed at: Adobe, Bosch, Cisco, Harley-Davidson, Experian, Emerson, British Telecom, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Honeywell, among others. Founded in 1999, Brightidea is closely held and headquartered in San Francisco, CA. For more information, please visit www.brightidea.com.

If you are implementing innovation management software to better manage your innovation process and deliver on your innovation strategy, I encourage you to add Brightidea to your consideration set. You really can't manage innovation successfully with e-mail or paper submissions.

And, never fear... Blogging Innovation remains committed to being a leading independent source for innovation and marketing insight articles from:

1. 20+ regular contributing authors
   
2. Quality ad hoc contributions from you - the Continuous Innovation community
   
3. The best innovation events and conferences (and exclusive discounts)
   
4. Interviews with interesting innovation personalities
   
5. Reviews of innovation books
   
6. Video interiews with innovation leaders

The funding we will now receive from our sponsors will enable the site to continue, and will allow us to invest in improving the site design.

If you would like to submit an article or are interested in being Blogging Innovation's April 2010 sponsor to help the innovation and marketing conversations continue, please contact us.

Blogging Innovation Adopting Monthly Sponsors

To continue our mission to bring you the very best in innovation and marketing insights, and make them even more accessible for the greater good, it's time I brought in some help. Believe it or not I do have a day job.

Don't worry, we're not going to do a pledge drive, and don't worry we are also going to remain completely neutral and independent.

We are currently running a sealed-bid auction for sponsorship of our header for March 2010. This auction ends at midnight GMT February 28, 2010 and already has a few bidders.

If your organization would like to help Blogging Innovation continue to be a great lightning rod for innovation and marketing insights, please contact us to bid in the March auction or to register your interest for a future month.

We'll be using the sponsorship income to invest in:

1. Someone who is incredibly passionate and knowledgeable part-time to administer the site and help make it more visible to people


2. Someone to create a new site design that will make the insights even more accessible

Keep up with the conversation by rss feed or by joining our LinkedIn group or Facebook page
