Ideation platforms, available online and accessible in collaborative mode, are virtual spaces dedicated to collecting and evaluating ideas within innovation or improvement processes. They are designed to gather suggestions and proposals from diverse audiences, including the general public, customers, and employees of a company or brand. In addition to providing a repository for ideas, these platforms integrate mechanisms for evaluating and refining submitted concepts. They also offer features for managing and engaging members, often based on collaborative methods and rewards. Ideation platforms are commonly used to stimulate innovation in product or service development, but they can also be used to optimize industrial processes and manage human resources. A notable example is the ideation platform implemented by Dell.
