Sitting here at reboot listening to Paula Le Dieu from Creative Commons about how you can make sure that the origin of an invention is preserved I get some perspectives I wanna share with you
Her examples is from the music scene and quite interesting.
When you apply it to internal design and other innovation project’s – and spice the traditional process up with a flavour of Open Source – you can empower real big resources.
In terms of incremental vs. radical innovation I think it is very interesting and highly relevant for most companies. Is it possible to outsource you innovation/product development when your IP of course is secured?
And what will happen when sharing some of you inventions with the “community”. Will that have any effect on you invention? And what effect would it have on the overall “community-development”/"Development-community""?
My 5 pence is that nothing would happen with you own invention; in the broader perspective we will see a higher innovationrate in general to the benefit to the community.
What do you think?
