Background

Helping large companies innovate isn't easy, but it is vital. Vital to creating new jobs, vital to igniting growth, vital to ensuring a safe, healthy and prosperous future for billions around the globe.

But, innovation at large companies is a mess. Employees often have lots of ideas to improve the business, but, with no formal process, their ideas go unheard, and they eventually give up trying to make a difference. Corporate innovation teams are expected to support a growing list of activities but have historically lacked strong tools designed for the job.  Executives, despite having millions to invest, live in fear of disruption, and still have no idea where their "next big idea" will come from, or if it will come at all. 

At Brightidea, we've built a software platform that's solving these problems. We've been helping organizations be more efficient with the 1.5 trillion dollars invested in R&D annually.

Our Company & Culture

We are a tight-knit, entrepreneurial minded team of self-starters who show up every day with a singular mission: to create a world where the best ideas win.  Our primary focus this year is to continue to add exceptionally talented and motivated individuals to the Brightidea team. We are ambitious, bold, highly-collaborative, focused, and we aim to win.  We take a humble approach to changing the way corporate R&D teams run innovation challenges. 

Anyone joining our company will have the opportunity to shape the culture and be an integral part of setting it up for long term success. If you identify with being humble, T-shaped, and relentlessly resourceful then this could be the perfect team for you to shine in. 

Brightidea believes that everyone has the ability to make a difference and that a diverse team generates more innovation and bigger ideas.  Just as our product invites organizations to crowd source innovation across their workforce, Brightidea is inclusive and does not discriminate.   We accept everybody.
