A new website named fellowforce.com was launched recently. According to openBusiness Web site, "Their business model is quite simple. It is a bit like the ‘monsterboard.com for innovation’. In the same easy way as posting a vacancy, organizations can post their innovation challenges or toughest problems. They already offer various challenges with interesting rewards." Fellowforce was founded in 2007 by two friends, Ruben Robert and Jack Allerts. As innovators themselves, both Ruben and Jack had experienced the difficulty of finding a way to present their ideas to the right people in organizations, and they decided to find a solution to address this. That was the starting point for a company that connects organizations worldwide with innovators through open space. In May 2007 they launched their venture with the ambition of becoming the leading platform for open innovation and problem solving.Click here to go to FellowForce.Com
