Gi2MO Metrics: Making Sense of Taxonomy Annotations to Measure Idea Performance

| August 8, 2012

Some time ago we shared our research on Gi2MO Types – a taxonomy that allows to classify ideas based on a number of their characteristics. We also showed a sneak peak of how this could be used in practice. Today, we would like to go above and beyond that preview and deliver an actual solution […]
