THE CHALLENGE: SCALING A GLOBAL DESIGN STUDIO AFTER ACQUISITION
When Idean, a renowned global design studio, was acquired by Capgemini and integrated into the new ‘Capgemini Invent’ business line, they faced the challenge of scaling quickly. With a growing roster of clients in Europe, the need to expand their team rapidly was clear. They needed a partner who could seamlessly support their transition and growth. After hearing about our work from Fahrenheit 212, they turned to Bamboo Crowd for help.
THE STRATEGY: AGILE TALENT SOLUTIONS FOR RAPID GROWTH
To meet the demands of their new chapter, we offered Idean our Freelance Service—a flexible and rapid way to access the top talent needed to deliver on high-priority projects.
Workshops with Leadership
We worked closely with Idean’s Chief Design Officer and Design Director to understand their culture, challenges, and goals. By pinpointing their resourcing needs, we co-created a growth strategy tailored to ensure they had the right people, exactly when they needed them.
Candidate Pool Development
We built a handpicked, highly-skilled network of freelancers across Service Design, UX, and Innovation—ensuring they had access to the best talent available. With ongoing engagement and insight into Idean’s latest work, this network was always prepared to jump into new projects at a moment’s notice.
THE OUTCOME: BUILDING A TALENT PIPELINE FOR FUTURE SUCCESS
By creating an always-on system, we’ve consistently delivered talent on demand. We’ve helped Idean make over 30 hires in record time, even in highly competitive, candidate-short markets. Our collaboration has been crucial in supporting their scaling efforts in both London and the UK’s more remote areas.
Our partnership continues to evolve, with ongoing support across the UK, US, and globally—helping Idean secure the best talent to meet their expanding needs.
We helped Idean make 30 talented hires in a short space of time in candidate-short markets. We still continue to support Idean globally, particularly in the UK and US.
