Welcome to an update of what proved to be a popular article looking at some great open innovation platforms. Innovation is crucial to survive in today’s disruptive and fast moving industrial and commercial landscape. It’s predicted that digital disruption will wipe out at least 40% of businesses in the next decade if they don’t adopt new technology, which usually also means new methods and requires a different management mindset.
