Company Description

Commonplace has a vision to connect people to places in order to accelerate positive change. We are passionate about giving people a meaningful voice in changes happening around them.

We have developed a proven methodology to do this, which has been used on over 1,200 projects, by four million people. We offer a cloud-based application together with support and advice on using digital technology in public engagement. We have learnt that our value to customers and communities is maximised with fantastic, proactive support. 

Commonplace is an independent, private company owned by founders, staff and investors. We are a social business with social objects in our Articles of Association: to increase participation; to surface unheard voices; and to help activate communities as better collaborators. We are purpose-led with a belief that by creating positive impact we will also achieve commercial success. 

We do this by: 

- Facilitating a shared understanding of needs between our customers and the community. We do this as early in the project as possible

- Capitalising on the strengths of digital tools to create trusted conversations Generating constructive collaboration that reduces projects risks and increases mutual value
