Creativity Center Helps Transform Innovative Ideas into Solutions
Radnor, PA - 25 May 2010
QlikTech, a leading provider of business intelligence software, today announced the launch of QlikView Labs on the premise that the most groundbreaking business solutions start with an idea that may seem unrelated or even unobtainable. With its history as a disruptor in the industry, QlikTech’s culture has been built on the proven track record that ideas often turn into innovations that can redefine a market.
Located in Lund, Sweden, QlikView Labs is a manifestation of the company’s vision to capture ideas, nurture creativity and focus research initiatives in an unstructured “sandbox” environment. QlikView Labs is a place where developers can play around with prototypes and ideas as the preliminary phase of product development aspirations. Although adjacent to the research and development organization, QlikView Labs acts as an independent incubator environment where many ideas will never advance to the next level. In this environment, QlikTech will leverage both a hands-on development center and its virtual community.
Designed to foster a collaborative environment, QlikView Labs allows employees, partners and customers to get involved in an unprecedented way, bringing creative and off-beat ideas to life to enhance customers’ businesses. Among the initial activations will be think tank sessions, previews and explorations of potential product extensions.
“The essence of QlikView Labs ties back to the roots of our organization when a few programmers thought there must be a better way to manage and activate a company’s data,” said Anthony Deighton, senior vice president of product, QlikTech. “While good ideas could – and should – come from anyone, the creation of this lab will allow some of the brightest minds to collaborate without restriction. As a result, we and our customers will reap the benefits of this enhanced creative process.”
