A new white-paper by Fronteer Strategy.
In the past decade, many companies have started changing from a closed to an open innovation model. Co-creation is a form of open innovation that has seen much growth over the last years. Those who practice co-creation understand that a lot of knowledge and value can be found outside the company walls. There are many benefits and drivers for co-creation, however, a lot has to happen before you will get the desired output.
Changing from a closed to an open innovation model is a process that doesn’t happen overnight. Implementation of co-creation usually results in a change process involving people, operations, policy and culture. All companies who start practicing co-creation will encounter barriers, questions and people with different motives, goals and priorities.
In order to provide some guidance during the first steps into the world of co-creation, in our newest white-paper, we offer you 9 ways to overcome these (social, psychological & organisational) barriers by giving direction, motivating your team and leading change.
Want to get your team ready for co-creation? You can find the complete white-paper here.

In challenging times, new rules apply.
Companies and organisations are searching for tools to help them win their day-to-day battles. They are faced with increasingly challenging questions: where to find future growth? How to deal with the risk of commoditisation? How to innovate from the core? How to get – or stay – connected with customers?
Our clients ask us: can co-creation provide the answer? Our answer: Yes it can, but as with many other solutions, co-creation will only truly deliver if it’s done properly. Co-creation is more than just a tool; it is a program of change. With 8 years of lead-user co-creation experience, Fronteer Strategy has identified a few strong recommendations to anyone wanting to venture out into this area.
In our desire to share these findings, we have written a white paper, which we invite you to read. In this white paper, we identify different types of co-creation (suitable for different types of challenges), present 5 guiding principles for success, discuss the value of co-creation and present a number of inspiring cases from around the world.
