Austin-based BSG Alliance announced that they are acquiring New Paradigm, a business innovation group founded by Dr. Don Tapscott in 1993. If his name sounds familiar, but you just can’t figure out where you know him from, he is a leading speaker and author of Wikinomics, The Net Generation, The Digital Economy, and many others.

BSG Alliance has had a pretty amazing first year of operations. In May the company raised $20M from Hummer Winblad and just a few weeks later announced their acquisition of Concours Group. Concours was founded by Reinventing the Corporation legend James Champy. BSG also acquired Industrial Science, a business simulations company, last month.

It seems pretty clear that BSG wants to provide the C-level strategic thinking for leading corporations, and also the Enterprise 2.0 technologies and consulting that enables them.
