The new partnership is formed to bring enterprise-class crowdsourcing services and technology to organizations in France and elsewhere in Europe.

Chaordix, a provider of managed crowdsourcing communities, helps organizations apply crowdsourcing to a wide range of needs including products or services innovation, predicting market reaction, enhancing brand relevance, or tapping the problem solving capability of crowds to develop research, technology, policy and product solutions. Chaordix crowdsourcing platform equips organizations to harness crowds including the broad public, employees, consumers and other stakeholders. Participants submit, refine and rank contributions that organizations can then apply to out perform their competition.

"Chaordix's crowdsourcing technology and services provide best-of-breed capabilities that organizations of all types - enterprises, government agencies, universities and not-for-profit - can use to gain the benefit of collective wisdom. We have projects already underway with Chaordix and look forward to many more."

The crowd may be consumers, employees, partners or other select memberships. The purpose of the crowd is to discover and test market demand and preferences, co-create products and services, solve previously unsolvable technical or R&D problems, and achieve relevant and enduring brands.
