the jam methodology with case study, by sergio correa

The Jam Method:

How to innovate in a fast & dynamic way

•  Bring a bunch of strangers together, give them a specific task and a tough theme, let them follow some basic but rather lose rules, ask them to self-organize, ask them to sound impressively smart at the end…and the result:

The 2nd Law of Thermodynamics !!!

The second law of thermodynamics states that the entropy of an isolated system never decreases, because isolated systems always evolve towards thermodynamic equilibrium, a state with maximum entropy…

CHAOS!  

Chaos? Well, not really…

The way to have ONE good idea is to have lots!

The Jam Method allows for a constant flow of ideas and certain cognitive activities including sketches, affinity diagrams, creating mind maps, etc. which end up supporting the creative process and the rupture of conventional thinking.

•  FoodBay.biz:    The  B2B  online  market  for  surplus  food    

–  We are an online platform that connects food-business supply and demand sides, enabling B2B exchange of food that would otherwise be wasted.

–  We use a 2-tier bidding system based on an online platform: the 1st tier bid is accepted based on the highest offer for a certain food lot. In case the food lot is not sold, the 2nd tier bidding algorithm decides on approved donation to a non-commercial organization (charity, NGO, foood bank, etc.)

Thanks to Swapsee and Claro Partners for their jamming support!
