• There are a plethora of web-based tools to co-create new products with customers and develop relationships with experts outside your organization to drive innovation and solve product road-blocks. This session will debate the strengths and weaknesses of the various open innovation platforms that deliver experts or new ideas and identify the critical success factors to external sourcing. This session will also look at new resources to help short cut the process from concept to launch while increasing customer engagement. Participants will evaluate the best tools for building a continuous input stream to monitor trends and identify new opportunities.

his peer-to-peer auction site, he replied,
“…that 135 million people have learned
they can trust a complete stranger.”
