Somedia<\/a> \u2013 one of the largest media companies in Switzerland – have selected Qmarkets\u2019 idea management platform to crowdsource ideas from their employees<\/a>. Starting with a pilot campaign to tackle challenges relating to the COVID-19 pandemic, the company has now signed up for a two-year license with over 400 users.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Somedia is a diversified media company, with over 700 employees spread across several subsidiaries focusing on digital, print, TV, radio, online services, publishing solutions, and advertising sales, as well as an advertising agency. Operating in an industry that has faced continuous waves of disruption, the leadership team at Somedia identified the urgent need for a professional tool to manage ideas in an effective and transparent way. <\/p>\n

Somedia is one of the leading publishing companies in Switzerland, headquartered in Chur, Graub\u00fcnden<\/em><\/p>\n

In the past employees at Somedia would share their ideas directly with their manager, but often the idea would be forgotten or get lost. This would lead to employees becoming frustrated and less likely to share ideas in the future. Upon looking at tools, it quickly became clear that Qmarkets had everything that Somedia was looking for.<\/p>\n
