We define the notion of the Idea Life Cycle, which provides a framework for characterizing tools and techniques that drive the evolution of community submitted data inside Idea Management Systems. Furthermore we show the dependencies between the community created information and the enterprise processes that are a result of using Idea Management Systems and point out the possible benefits.},
