How to be more innovative

Check out some talks and info about innovation processes, we'll start you off with this great talk:

TED Talk: When ideas have sex

We don't need much from you now. Answer our 4 brief questions and 10 of you have a chance to win £1k Primer funding.

This funding will give you the time to work on your idea in more depth.

Initial idea submission on our Innovation Portal requires a description of your app idea by answering these questions:


* What is the problem you want to solve
* Who experiences that problem
* How you want to solve that problem
* Why this is a better solution


For example: “I want to solve the problem of difficult event reporting at NNL. This problem is experienced by anyone who needs to log an OSHANS event, but is unfamiliar with the current
software process. I want to solve that problem by providing a simple app to collect the required
data without having to log into the current system. This would be a better solution because it would be easy and quick for NNL employees to use, and therefore make it more likely that event reporting would be carried out.”
