CENERGIM CO-INNOVATION SOLUTION

A co-innovation management platform that makes it easy for Innovators to collaborate and act as “Challengers” or “Innovators” by either submitting a challenge, or by collaborating to solve a challenge;
A trusted innovation ecosystem that ensures that only Cenergim vetted and invited innovators and experts participate in solving challenges so that the desired quality outcomes are generated;
An outcome-based model that replaces the old “do-it-yourself” (DIY) model with a simpler and managed “do-it-for-me” (DIFM) model that ensures success.

Trusted Innovation Ecosystem

A SIMPLE SOLUTION TO A COMPLEX PROBLEM

Co-innovation is a complex endeavor especially when multiple parties are involved. Our goal is to simplify it and eliminate as many frictions as possible to enable you achieve your goals faster.
We do this by providing a software-with-a-service (SwaS) solution that combines a high-tech platform with high-touch management services. All that you have to do is to discreetly submit your challenge to us and collaborate with your dedicated Success Manager and vetted innovators to achieve the outcomes that you desire.

CENERGIM HELPS YOU TO COPE WITH THE NEW REALITY

“Innovate smarter and faster or die” is the new reality. Today’s innovators and especially SaaS companies are under immense pressure from all directions as change is happening much faster than ever before. Our solution was designed to address the following challenges and their corresponding needs that we discovered through research and interviews with SaaS providers:

CHALLENGS

Lack of specialized internal capabilities and resources needed to solve complex challenges;
Inability to use the existing open platforms due to competitive, confidentiality, and IP protection issues;
Complexity and innovation frictions caused by piecemealing too many do-it-yourself (DIY) solutions;
Unaffordable and expensive consulting and managed services that exceed budgets;
Risks, failures, and inconveniences as a result of vendor fatigue;
Inability to achieve the desired innovation and business outcomes.

NEEDS

Timely access to trusted and specialized partners in a distributed innovation ecosystem who can collaboratively innovate products and solutions;
Collaborative solutions that enable innovators to discreetly share challenges and co-innovate solutions;
Simple and managed do-it-for-me (DIFM) solutions;
Solutions that provide the option to offer a cash reward or ask for competitive bids based on budgets;
Managed services through a single point-of-contact to vet and manage partners;
Outcome-driven solutions with escrow services that ensure payment based on delivered outcomes.

WHAT IS CO-INNOVATION?

Co-innovation is a collaborative and distributed form of open innovation. It’s a form of partnership where two or more innovators collaborate together throughout the innovation process anywhere from ideation to post-commercialization.

Co-innovators are a group of peers, subject matter experts, solution providers, customers, or partners from one or more industries or ecosystems—”club-of-experts”—who share common objectives. Collectively, they generate breakthrough ideas, co-create new products and solutions, and solve mission-critical innovation and business challenges.
