Design Thinking and Crowdsourcing: application of the design thinking methodology for the definition of a crowdsourcing platform

The working table is set up as part of the Interreg project Central Europe SYNERGY (CE_1171).

The SYNERGY project aims to improve innovation processes in European regions by strengthening cooperation between the various actors present: large companies, SMEs, high tech start-ups, research centers, incubators, institutions.

CRIT is a project partner and has the task of defining and launching a crowdsourcing platform through which the various actors involved will be able to propose and develop their service offerings.

The work table aims to define the initial requirements on which to develop this platform; to carry out the activity we will use the design thinking methodology, which allows us to integrate both analytical and intuitive and creative attitudes.

In organizing the day two companies of the CRIT network were involved: at the beginning of the meeting there will in fact be an intervention carried out by Tetra Pak that will bring its own contribution related to the experience gained internally through the use of the Design Thinking methodology. The day will be managed in collaboration with Ludotic, a company belonging to the CRIT Accredited Suppliers Network.
