Here is a roundup of a few of the latest customers to use IGLOO’s social software platform in order to improve business processes, drive online collaboration and enhance knowledge sharing.

WTA

The WTA Tour is the professional tennis tour for women and the counterpart to the ATP World Tour, the men's professional association. Each year, over 2,200 players representing 96 nations compete at 53 WTA events and four Grand Slams worldwide.
IGLOO has been working with the ATP since August 2008 to bring together their globally dispersed personnel in a next generation intranet, from the chair umpires and tournament staff to senior leadership. And the success of the ATP project was one of the key factors in the WTA's recent decision to replicate this model for their own internal communication and collaboration needs. http://www.wtatour.com

Children's National Medical Center

Children's National Medical Center is an internationally recognized pediatric care facility located in Washington, DC. In support of its national child advocacy programs, Children's will be launching two online communities: a patient community for transgender children, their parents and caregivers, as well as the physicians that support them and a practitioner community for emergency care physicians and specialists throughout the United States. http://www.childrensnational.org

Fundació Clínic per la Recerca Biomèdica (FCRB)

Fundació Clínic per a la Recerca Biomèdica (FCRB) is a non-profit institution that was created to promote, manage and perform biomedical research on behalf of the Clinic Hospital of Barcelona. In order to connect patients, doctors, nurses, facilitators and staff, FCRB built a medical wellness and collaboration portal called Forum Clinic (www.forumclinic.org).
Forum Clinic offers medical and clinical information for a variety of services offered by the hospital, using an open source content management system (CMS). However, FCRB was frustrated with the experience and will now use IGLOO to manage their community and its 10,000+ members.  http://www.fundacioclinic.org

Ontario Health Quality Council (OHQC)

The Ontario Health Quality Council (OHQC), an independent agency funded by the Government of Ontario, provides independent and objective reporting on the performance of the health system in the province. One program that they manage is called Residents First (http://www.residentsfirst.ca/) - a long-term care initiative that is designed to improve the quality of care for seniors. The initiative is a four-year project that brings together long-term care homes to share best practices and principles in the elimination of pressure ulcers. The Community continues to grow and exceed its targets for participation and IGLOO is actively collaborating with OHQC to plan and execute the next evolution of the community. http://www.ohqc.ca
