Lego Cuusoo is an online crowdsourcing platform that allows customers to submit and vote on ideas for new Lego products. If an idea receives 10,000 votes, it has a chance to be turned into a real product. Three products have been launched through this platform so far. The goal is to source new product ideas directly from customers to create products they want. The platform provides value to both Lego and customers by opening up the design process and allowing customers to help shape new products.
