“MINT – Measure Innovation in Teams”.
This approach focuses on the assessment of innovation capability at team level in relation to the processes which takes place before actual product development projects are decided
Needfinding is considered an applied approach to identifying, capturing and communicating human needs into the process of product innovation. It assumes that designers need to be involved at the early stages of product innovation to have an impact on the product definition. The development of Needfinding includes creation of new methods to complement the product […]

The MOVE framework is designed to help you plan an effective internal workshop to address the innovation capabilities within your group or company. MOVE is based on four dimensions of team innovation: Make, Observe, Visualize, and Engage. We talk about dimensions rather than phases because innovation is not a linear process. Use elements of each […]

Prototyping is at the heart of our engineering education. With resources (via our Karlskrona Makerspace environment) we are now adding the littleBits to our library. LittleBits are electronic circuits that snap together and in an instant you build circuits, add CloudBit and you got it internet connected! For more information: Product Development Research Lab Director, Professor Tobias […]
