4. open innov lifecycle

This document outlines the innovation lifecycle process, which includes 4 main waves: creativity, feasibility, prototyping, and engineering. The creativity wave involves generating ideas through triggers, divergent thinking, walking to stimulate alpha waves, and considering different perspectives. Feasibility assesses the technical, financial, market, and competency feasibility of ideas. Prototyping transforms ideas into working prototypes to test and refine. Engineering transforms successful prototypes into real products by addressing costs, usability, and production plans. The final stage is transferring knowledge to production and ensuring organizations are ready to absorb innovation and change.

- 8. 1. Creativity & Immagination “Presumably, the process of creativity, whatever it is, is essentially the same in all its branches and varieties, so that the evolution of a new art form, a new gadget, a new scientific principle, all involve common factors.” (Isaac Asimov, On Creativity, MIT Tech Rep 1959. Reprint by MIT Technology Review, Oct 2014) 8
- 9. Creativity • Serendipity • Divergent thinking • Mindful-based Creativity • and... Walking – alpha waves responsible for creative insights – Walking opens up the free flow of ideas, – After walking on the treadmill, 81% of the volunteers scored higher on tests of divergent thinking. (http://psycnet.apa.org/psycinfo/2014-14435- 001/). “All truly great thoughts are conceived while walking.” (F. Nietzsche) 9
- 10. Where Creativity comes from? • Connective approach to creativity. New knowledge stemming from new connections • This is why you need first “to know” (the importance of Innovation Knowledge Repository) “creativity does not spring from the null, it emerges establishing new connections among elements that exist.” (Henri Poincaré) 10
- 11. Fantasia, by Bruno Munari • Objective / Idea • Initial description • Collect Knowledge about • Analyse knowledge about • Materials, Technologies, Strategies • CREATIVITY: Fantasy, Invention, Imagination • Fantasy: “imagine something that before didn’t exist, even if impossible” • Invention: “imagine something that before didn’t exist, but that has a practical use” • Imagination: “make visible what fantasy, invention, and creativity have conceived” 11

- 13. Idea Management Tool 13 Preliminarily define the Objective • Solicit ideas, create Surveys, Questions • Receive Surveys and Questions responses • Review, filter and ‘scrub’ submitted ideas • Create a short list of candidate ideas, plus deferred and discarded ideas, with motivations • Clearly define selection criteria and rank ideas accordingly
- 14. Scouting • Is my idea really innovative? • What are similar ideas? Previous projects addressing similar issues? • What are previous successes and failures? • What are the key challenges (and traps) we are going to face?

- 15. 2. Feasibility Activity of multi-disciplinary teams • Technical feasibility – How risky is the implementation? Is the needed technology available, stable? • Financial feasibility – Do we have the finacial resources? Or, how difficult will be to attract venture capital? Break-even point? • Market feasibility – What is the value proposition? Is the market ready for this? How strong are the competitors? Can we differentiate? • Competencies feasibility – Do we have the required expertise? Can we evolve the internal skills? Or, what kind of partnerships we need? 15
- 16. Feasibility Objectives • Organised in 4 different reports, according to the 4 perspectives – Technical feasibility Report – Financial feasibility Report – Market feasibility Report – Competencies feasibility Report • This is a baseline to provide input to managers and obtain needed resources • They can be produced by using your preferred method (e.g., including SWOT) • You can add more reports or integrate the content, e.g., with extended risk analysis and mgt InnoBoK Part 2: Feasibility Studies 16

- 18. Prototyping Objectives • This is a very crucial activity: show that your idea is actually actualy (properly) working • Innovators may approach it as they prefer • Firstly: creative design, then tentative implementation • Then need to test, measure, assess, change, retry, .... • But ... eventually a running solution needs to be fully completed InnoBoK Part 3: Prototype (and Tech Rep) 18
