Innocentive’s Open Innovation










Here's a novel idea; if you have a problem, ask everyone.

With 145,000+ Solvers in 175 Countries solving problems for 40 Industry Disciplines, Innocentive is the most brilliant idea I've seen in a while. With the backing of many wealthy research organizations, they are offering $5,000 - $1,000,000 in prizes for chosen solutions.

I hope it takes off, the world could learn a thing or two.

Here's the NYTimes feature.

Found on PSFK

Not really the same thing...but along the same lines is ideastox.com, where you can post your creative ideas, inventions, etc and then they can be picked up by people who might actually be able to help you make it happen. Some good stuff on there--some just funny stuff. Check it out :)
