Open innovation tools

The SYNERGY Platform as an open innovation environment for industry and academia.

The main aim of the SYNERGY Crowd Innovation Platform is to provide an open innovation environment for industry and academia with various newly designed services enhancing crowd innovation initiatives in Central Europe.

The SYNERGY Platform essentially offers three types of crowd innovation services for different user groups such as representatives of industry, science, business development or the general public:

• Crowdfunding for small research projects,
• Crowdsourcing challenges for innovation
• Infrastructure Sharing among Central European regions

The platforms gives the opportunity to improve the effectiveness of idea and product development, find solutions beyond the boundaries of their own institution, discover new collaboration opportunities, receive feedback on their own ideas and even conduct product trials. The SYNERGY platform has the advantage over existing tools in that it integrates various crowd and open innovation collaboration mechanisms into a single tool.

The SYNERGY platform is free of charge and open to all interested users.

If you are interested, you can create an account via the following link and create a campaign or challenge to one of the three services. For first assistance the user manual is available on the platform. We are looking forward to your ideas and contributions!
