Is <a href=\"http:\/\/gac.idexlab.com\/collaborative-innovation-and-societal-challenges\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">collective knowledge<\/a> a prerequisite for <a href=\"http:\/\/gac.idexlab.com\/open-innovation-examples\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Open Innovation<\/a> today? Let\u2019s discover the concept of co-development!<\/p>\n<h3>Co-development, from the idea of the product to its production<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Co-development is inseparable with Open Innovation<\/strong>. This concept relies on <a href=\"http:\/\/gac.idexlab.com\/good-expert\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">experts<\/a> and skilled workers from all horizons collaborating all together, but also on a common goal directing the collaborative development of a project. <strong>Co-development can be set up at any level of technological growth<\/strong>, from the conceptualisation of the product to its production or methods of distribution. But isn\u2019t <em>sharing for growing<\/em> a utopia?<\/p>\n<h3>Is co-development a relevant solution for all industries?<\/h3>\n<p>Don\u2019t be mistaken: collective innovation isn\u2019t as foggy as it may seem at first. In fact, it can apply to any industrial sector in search for innovation. When knowledge passes from one industry\u2019s hand to another\u2019s, it can indeed be a great source of inspiration and growth to both sectors.<br \/><strong>In this ebook<\/strong>, you\u2019ll discover <strong>6 very concrete examples of Open Innovation and co-development strategies<\/strong> that performed brilliantly.
