InnoCentive Products

Depending on your organization's level of experience with open innovation, you may require different approaches to implementing an open innovation strategy. Is your organization already comfortable with open innovation and ready to start posting Challenges or do you need help? Is your organization interested in trying open innovation first within your own pool of talent before reaching out to the broader marketplace? To meet the full range of solution requirements, InnoCentive offers several product options.

InnoCentive Challenges - An InnoCentive Challenge is a unique problem posted by Seekers in the InnoCentive Open Innovation Marketplace. The goal of a Challenge is to solicit solutions from the Solver community, and ultimately choose the one that best fits the criteria set out by the Seeker. Challenges can be large or small, short-term or long-term. If a solution is selected as “best” by the Seeker, the Solver receives a financial award, which varies per Challenge.

InnoCentive ONRAMP – ONRAMP (Open iNnovation Rapid Adoption Methods and Practices) is a suite of professional services and technical resources from InnoCentive, developed and delivered by our team of scientists, PhDs and consultants to help Seeker companies adopt open innovation rapidly and successfully within their organizations.

InnoCentive@Work – For companies with a vast wealth of untapped research talent, InnoCentive@Work is a logical first step toward true open innovation. InnoCentive@Work is a comprehensive suite of offerings that help clients create an internal web-based collaborative community for problem solvers. Later, as companies gain experience with open innovation, we’ll also help move problems from inside the organization to InnoCentive’s global scientific community of Solvers, further increasing the diversity of potential solutions.
