The communication with and between our 79 sports associations was limited, outdated, and one-way through newsletters and a crowded website. With Colibo, we have made it much more dialogue-based.

The challenge
In the search for flexibility and design, Dansk Firmaidræt teams up with Colibo.
Colibo's platform seemed to be the most flexible. The other providers did not have enough experience. We needed something solid and reassurance that it would just work.

As the Danish Company Sports Association chooses a platform, they prioritize features that suit their needs, such as the ability to effectively segment content and a user-friendly design. Lisa elaborates: "Groups were also one of the reasons for choosing Colibo. Being able to segment content is very important. Not all providers could do it in the way we wanted. The design was also crucial. Colibo is user-friendly and intuitive – an important factor for our older users."
Colibo is simple. It is easy to understand and work in the platform from both the user and administrator sides. The flexibility of the platform is superb. We can customize it as we wish; add and remove things – and build the homepage as we like.

The solution
Denmark's Company Sports launches their internal communication platform, Hjemmebanen, based on Colibo, to create a digital community where everything is gathered. They use targeted groups for employees, the board, local city groups, groups depending on sports – for example, for football coaches.
Here are a few examples of how groups can be used in Colibo within the sports world:
Local groups
Youth teams
Stakeholders
Sports genres (padel, football etc.)
Finance and IT
Colibo brings everyone together. The right people in the right places. You are not just in a large network; you are in your own department and the groups that matter most to you. It's about professional community and getting the relevant content.

Is there something Dansk Firmaidræt can do now that they couldn't do before Colibo?
"With Colibo, we can build networks around different groups. Our board, for example, now has its own exclusive space for file sharing and seamless communication. They used to rely on email and Sharepoint, but neither is intuitive or fosters collaboration like Colibo. Colibo's platform centralizes everything, and we missed that before."
The intranet replaces the newsletter and the section on the website.
Danish Company Indoor replaces their newsletter and a section on their website with the internal communication platform called 'Home Ground' and they place all relevant information for their users here. News is posted in the news feed and this makes it easier to search for older news. Lisa continues: "It's cool that you can push notifications out with the push function. And you can easily search and find old news. It's so much easier in Colibo compared to email."
Colibo is worth the investment. It is the future of internal communication.
