Case Study: Hubcap (B.C.'s social innovation community) increases traffic, time on site and social engagement with Kentico

Hubcap - Customer Case Study

Hubcap BC is British Columbia’s online social innovation community, launched by the BC Partners for Social Impact to help innovators, entrepreneurs, educators, funders and public policy makers learn, share and build partnerships. Number 41 Media was engaged by the Ministry of Social Development and Social Innovation (with partners VanCity and Telus) to create a central “hub” because social innovators across the province were often working in silos and lacked a unified place to connect and scale their ideas.

Number 41 delivered beta wireframes and a full build—using Kentico with a C# back end, JavaScript front end, custom modules and the Kentico REST API, plus AngularJS for client-side features—creating a scalable, layered framework that keeps content focused and easy to navigate as the community grows. The new hub increased site traffic, boosted average visit duration and improved social media engagement, fulfilling the goal of a shared resource for collaboration and discovery.
