Development of iWave's Fundraising Intelligence Platform
EF 2018-19 · 2019-01-28
Résumé
Over the past 6 years, iWave has successfully built a software platform that serves Prospect Researchers that work within Education, Healthcare, and Nonprofit organizations. Due to trends in the fundraising sector and new demands placed on fundraisers, who traditionally consume prospect research data, there needs to be faster, more reliable ways to get the "intelligence" required to make an ask, into the hands of a fundraiser. As such, iWave will innovate and build a new "Fundraising Intelligence" platform to respond to these new requirements, while continuing to grow its offerings for prospect researchers. This project will also focus on scalability, as the fundraising sector is much larger than the prospect research sector.

Description
Over the past 6 years, iWave has successfully built a software platform that serves Prospect Researchers that work within Education, Healthcare, and Nonprofit organizations. Due to trends in the fundraising sector and new demands placed on fundraisers, who traditionally consume prospect research data, there needs to be faster, more reliable ways to get the "intelligence" required to make an ask, into the hands of a fundraiser. As such, iWave will innovate and build a new "Fundraising Intelligence" platform to respond to these new requirements, while continuing to grow its offerings for prospect researchers. This project will also focus on scalability, as the fundraising sector is much larger than the prospect research sector.
Description (French)
Au cours des 6 dernières années, iWave a construit avec succès une plate-forme logicielle au service de chercheurs potentiels, qui travaillent au sein d'organisations éducatives, de santé et à but non lucratif. En raison des tendances dans le secteur de la collecte de fonds et des nouvelles exigences imposées aux collecteurs de fonds, qui consomment traditionnellement des données de recherche de prospects, il faut trouver des moyens plus rapides et plus fiables de transmettre les renseignements nécessaires pour faire une demande entre les mains d'un collecteur de fonds. A ce titre, iWave va innover et construire une nouvelle plate-forme « Fundraising Intelligence » pour répondre à ces nouvelles exigences, tout en continuant à développer son offre à destination des chercheurs potentiels. Ce projet mettra également l'accent sur l'extensibilité, car le secteur de la collecte de fonds est beaucoup plus grand que le secteur de la recherche prospective.
