Today our second Co-Creation-Workshop took place at Switzerland Innovation Park Central! 🚀 Most of the teams from Call #1 and Call #2 participated. The main goals of the workshop were to encourage exchange between the teams from both calls and to gain valuable insights and tips from the experts on-site. After the break, the teams focused on the DFV framework for innovation. DFV stands for: 1️⃣ Desirability 2️⃣ Feasibility 3️⃣ Viability These three are key pillars of successful innovation because they ensure that an idea is not only technically feasible and economically viable but also desired by users. These three dimensions form the foundation of holistic innovation management. 🚀📈 A heartfelt thank you to all the teams and experts for their dedication and engagement during the workshop! 🙏 Alexandra Beck, Ruth Furrer, Luigi Giordano, Timothy C.
