Connectbeam was founded to help companies harness their "collective intelligence" through web application services that fit naturally into the way people work.

Connectbeam’s architecture and core application (Spotlight) were designed to help people in any role, across the enterprise, connect with both the growing pool of information and colleagues with the expertise and experience to help them get their jobs done more intelligently and more quickly. We enable this by aggregating the social metadata that is generated naturally by using the web into a single repository that everyone in the company can access and use.

Connectbeam is the first company to integrate concepts of social bookmarking and tagging with those of social networking.

Connectbeam brings the 'Web 2.0' information-sharing, collaboration, and ease of use of sites like MySpace and del.icio.us to the daily work-flow of enterprise employees. It helps companies boost innovation, improve decisions, intensify collaboration, and build critical stakeholder relationships.

To see what others think please search for the many positive reviews Connectbeam has received from the press, such as The Wall Street Journal; Blogs, such as TechCrunch; and analyst firms such as Gartner.

Connectbeam was founded by experienced entrepreneurs with decades of experience in the enterprise software market. The company is venture backed and privately held.
