CoInnovate 2015 Challenges Announced

Exploring and addressing real needs through collaboration.

In the first event of its kind, CoInnovate 2015 merges an open innovation conference with engaging workshops to drive new opportunities in Digitalisation, Defence & Security and Healthcare.

Airbus, General Dynamics UK and GE Healthcare all have a proven track record in identifying opportunities and delivering innovative products that push the limits of technology.

With a united vision towards a successful ecosystem, these multinationals will be presenting their real challenges to you at CoInnovate to explore with other like-minded innovators, scientists, engineers and business-leaders.

Why? Because they understand that innovation in today’s world requires collaboration and that solutions can come from anywhere. As Rob Rolley, Technology Director at General Dynamics UK often puts it: “Open Innovation for me means 1 + 1 = 3”.

Below are the list of challenges that will be presented on 24th June, but join us at CoInnovate to find out more and create valuable connections.

We may not develop the perfect solutions to all these challenges on the day, but together with your expertise and support, we hope to kick-start exciting projects and opportunities for all involved.
