Blacksnow Systems

Ashoka Changemakers

Ashoka wanted a platform that brings innovators, enthusiasts, and investors together to generate ideas and collaborate in order to bring out positive social change. We became an “in-house” development team Ashoka and helped envision, design, and build their platform using Drupal 6. An extensive code refactoring allowed us to build a custom Drupal theme that really makes the platform on www.changemakers.com shine.

Online Consultations

The founder of Online Consultation needed a technology partner that could design, develop, and manage a brilliant platform concept that combines social networking technologies with video chat and VoIP. By developing a robust API, Online Consultation would be able to extend its offering to a much broader audience. Blacksnow Systems took on the challenge and is now the sole technology partner for Online Consultation.

Naadam

The owners of Naadam cashmere wanted a site that tells a story about Mongolian Sherpas and the struggles they face each day to deliver the world’s highest quality cashmere. We helped them with site design, photography selection, and site copy so that their site could clearly communicate the value that Naadam brings to the table.

TweetWho

Two west coast entrepreneurs in the entertainment industry wanted to create a fun game based on Twitter and needed help envisioning, designing, and implementing the concept in the form of an iPhone application. We became their technology partner, helped develop the concept, designed, and built the app. Currently in Beta, expect to see TweetWho on the iPhone app store shortly.

OurBridge

In a partnership with Ashoka Changemakers, we were asked to help develop a platform for a client that would bridge medical researchers, patients, the public, and funders. This community is geared toward “open sourcing” medical data and building computational models to help better understand diseases and medical conditions.

Connect to Compete

Connect to Compete has the ambitious vision, in partnership with Microsoft, to get a computer with Internet access in the hands of every American family. To help achieve this, they needed a refresher for their website before a major media campaign. Blacksnow Systems helped design their site using Drupal 7 with an Omega Theme so users could best access the site using mobile devices.

Tess Wald Productions

With over 30 years of experience delivering world class, large-scale productions, Tess Wald Productions needed a website makeover that could truly communicate to clients just how professional and effective the company is. We helped TWP with logo design and designed a new look and feel to their site.

Envision and Co-creation

The critical first step in any project we choose to take on is to envision and co-create the future outcome of your idea.

This phase of co-creation we take very seriously and is the key to unlocking the intersection between transformative innovations and technology.
