Open Design: Secret Sauce of Business Innovation

Description:

As the world is becoming increasingly more connected, innovation models are changing rapidly. Now terms like co-creation, crowdsourcing and peer to peer production are mainstream drivers of new ideas and innovation - and are all fuelled by the same force, humanity’s life-long centerpiece: Community. But in tech, it has a best friend and accellerator: Open source. Are we on the verge of a tectonic shift in business? An open source design revolution?
Join this session in which two organisations driving innovation in open source design and manufacturing, Danish Design Centre and Open Source Hardware Association, come to together with the audience to uncover the secret sauce of driving innovation and new business through opening up your design and building communities of co-creators.
