Quirky is a mid-sized manufacturing company that brings new consumer products to market by coordinating a collaborative development process among a global community of inventors, the company's staff, and established consumer brands. It seeks to unlock ideas that may exist only in people's heads, making invention more accessible by connecting concepts with pathways to development. Its model relies on real-time input from diverse creators and on sharing revenue with the inventors and partners who contribute to launches. Headquartered in New York City, Quirky was founded in 2009. In 2018 the company announced a partnership with Sharper Image to invite inventors to submit new toy ideas as part of a broader invention challenge.
