Types of Co-creation[1]
                              Co-creation exists in many different ways. Which type to choose is de-
                              pending on the challenge at hand. There is always an initiator, e.g.. the par-
                              ty that decides to start a Co-creation initiative. This can be a company or
                              just a single person. One or (many!) more contributors will be joining along
                             the process. The initiator determines who can join and under what condi-
                             tions. All platforms are categorized into one of the 4 groups.


                          Club of experts:                                                           -
                         through ideas. Contributors are found through a selection process. Quality of
                       input is what counts.

                   Crowd of people: Also known as Crowdsourcing. For any given challenge, there
                 might be a person out there having a genial idea that should be given a podium. It’s the
                Rule of the big numbers.

            Coalition of parties: In complex situations parties team up to share ideas and investments.
          Technical breakthroughs and standards often happen when multiple parties collaborate.

      Community of kindred spirits: When developing something for the greater good, a group of peo-
    ple with similar interests and goals can come together and create.

5 Guiding Principles[2]
     a people’s business. Successful Co-creation initiatives all share 5 common
     rules:

     Inspire participation: Trigger people to join your challenge: open up and
     show what’s in it for them.

     Select the very best: You need the best ideas and the best people to deal
     with today’s complex issues.

     Connect creative minds: You have to enable bright people to build on each
     others ideas, both on- and off-line.

     Share results
     crucial.

     Continue development: Co-creation is a longer-term engagement, in- and
     outside your company. Only then it will deliver results

Differentiators
parameters to screen the platforms
 Because we wanted to compare platforms with each other, some parameters
 had to be chosen.
 We make a difference between differentiators that are measurable (pareters)
 and differentiators that are listable.
 The parameters are measured on a scale from 1 to 5. Each parameter is de-
 scribed below and gives an idea of how the scale is chosen.
 Other differentiators (not measurable), are mentioned in the cases. Mostly
 in the key info, but often also in the plain text.

 All cases have been mapped out in this “Co-creation Canvas”.
 As reference for the value on the X-axis, we used the amount of “co-creation interac-
 tion”. Platforms that score low are placed at the left side, platforms that score high
 are mapped at the right side. On the Y-axis, the scope is mapped out. The scope can


 Every platform is symbolized as a dot with its case reference number inside. Plat-
 forms that make more money out of the co-creation process are visualized bigger
 than others.

TOOLS
methods to enlarge interaction
When designing a Co-Creation platform, it is important to include enough pos-
sibilities for interaction. Platforms where youcan’t interact in the right way slow
down or even die. “Interaction Tools” are important for the whole dynamic
structure of the platform, and make collaboration easier.

  • 5. Types of Co-creation[1] Co-creation exists in many different ways. Which type to choose is de- pending on the challenge at hand. There is always an initiator, e.g.. the par- ty that decides to start a Co-creation initiative. This can be a company or just a single person. One or (many!) more contributors will be joining along the process. The initiator determines who can join and under what condi- tions. All platforms are categorized into one of the 4 groups. Club of experts: - through ideas. Contributors are found through a selection process. Quality of input is what counts. Crowd of people: Also known as Crowdsourcing. For any given challenge, there might be a person out there having a genial idea that should be given a podium. It’s the Rule of the big numbers. Coalition of parties: In complex situations parties team up to share ideas and investments. Technical breakthroughs and standards often happen when multiple parties collaborate. Community of kindred spirits: When developing something for the greater good, a group of peo- ple with similar interests and goals can come together and create. 4 image: CC Flickr - Carol VanHook

We make a difference between differentiators that are measurable (pareters) and differentiators that are listable. The parameters are measured on a scale from 1 to 5. Each parameter is de- scribed below and gives an idea of how the scale is chosen. Other differentiators (not measurable), are mentioned in the cases.

  • 18. A Quirky From Platform Perspective Quirky is a platform which offers co-creation in the whole process (from ideation until sales). It pro- www.quirky.com vides all the tools people need to “influence” a project or an idea, and to work together towards a good end-product. Because people can be part of every step in the overall process, their contribution can be really high. Even in sales: influencers are going to present/sell their product. The fact that the platform is supported by the whole community and Quirky, makes it a strong struc- ture where anybody can find a way to contribute in his/her own way. From Solvers Perspective Solvers, or better said creators, are encouraged to “influence” projects. This can be done in different ways (research, voting, comments, ...). The bigger their influence (real-time measurement), the bigger their reward (=money). This way people get more rewarded if they are more involved, which makes everything more active. The fact that the whole Quirky-community is pretty big at this moment, makes it possible to have a huge user/community feedback. This way a product is a “team-product” where many people are proud of (providing Quirky already a “social base” for pre-selling the new product). From Seekers Perspective From the moment Quirky “approves” a community-idea; Quirky is involved in every step that is made afterwards. Quirky can get financial benefit either in the possibility to make money out of ideas in the sales phase, or indirectly by collecting huge market data (which can be used in next projects). Every week Quirky provides a new design brief for a new product; contribution as an individual is free! Only if you like to “send” your own idea (not related to the design brief), you pay a little “upload-fee”. This is besides a little bit money-making also a natural filter selecting only thought through concepts. Overseeing the whole process at every step, is what makes Quirky so strong. Key Learnings • Give the easiest job to the crowd (generating ideas), work alone on the hardest part (finding best Key Info manufacturers, engineering, ...). US • Work together in between (feedback, branding) and afterwards (sales). • Reward your co-creators in a way they think is correct and valuable Category Crowd of People • Give many tools to contribute in many ways (voting, messages, rating-systems, ...)

  • 19. B Foldit From Platform Perspective As all other cases are platforms or real-life co-creations, Fold-it uses an interesting feature to solve www.fold.it problems: play. People can play either alone or solve puzzles “in group”. This makes the game both col- laborative, and competitive. Why is this a co-creation example and another game like “World of Warcarft” not? Maybe this last one is also an example, but with fold.it the focus is something to solve in real life (science problems), where in other games this doesn’t exist. From Solvers Perspective The solvers know they are helping the platform with solving “science problems”, but it is not their drive to do so. The profile of the foldit-seekers are people who are looking for nice puzzles to solve. The more difficult, the more interesting, and the more they like it. Because every puzzle comes with a competition amongst other players, the player gets even more “in to the game”. Problems become puzzles, solutions become game-achievements. From Seekers Perspective Fold-it is an interesting way to solve the problems universities were looking for: unfolding protein structures through a video game. Saying it is cheaper than rewarding people for it, is maybe not some- thing that can be said immediately. The development of the game, analyses, ... takes a lot of time as well (= money). On the other hand, the total set-up is on university-level; which makes it easier to do so. Implying this model on corporate-level, means the initiator needs a high set of skills/€ to start such an initiative. Key Learnings • People don’t always have to be rewarded in physical things. Fun can also be a good “return”. Key Info • Gamification is a technique that becomes more and more important in online platforms/websites. US • Making a co-creation tool for solvers starts already with co-creating as a seeker yourself (different departments of university join in one project).

  • 20. C Co Creation From Platform Perspective The idea behind the platform is finding people who like to share ideas about “New Energy problems” www.cocreation.pt and/or who like to make suggestions for the distribution of it. Making this open source could give the people the drive to join (they can read through all generated content, …) But there it stops... The platform has a lack of tools to bring these challenges to live. People can only comment and discuss with each other in specific fields or through a blog. From Solvers Perspective It is easy to join as a “solver” on this platform, little registration is necessary. But directly as you do so, you can feel the platform is not “alive”. And this is the first step that is really important for people to contribute. As long it is not visible that a platform is alive, people won’t contribute (because in the first place they don’t feel as they get something back) and the platform stays in the same “frozen” loop. From Seekers Perspective A platform as this, from company side, is possible but you have to make choices. EDP is, at this moment, somewhere in between. It is not clear what their role is in the platform; is it to generate new ideas for EDP and to make money out of it (of course this it, but for the solvers it is not clear), or is this a platform of being open-source and setting up a community of kindred spirits? Communicate good to your user, and they will communicate back. Do this wrong and they will take a step back. Key Learnings • People who “join” want to see/experience a breathing/living platform. Not something that is dead. Key Info • With only a forum and providing the possibility to comment on projects, people don’t have the PT proper tools to co-create as they should be able to. • Not rewarding people is possible, only when they get “something else” in return (content, play, ...)

  • 21. D Open IDEO From Platform Perspective The OpenIdeo platform is a bit the same as other more commercial examples where people get re- www.openideo.com warded if they find a good solution for a “challenge” (e.g. Innocentive). With OpenIDEO, the reward- system is based on recognition. People are contributing “for the better” and to increase their “Design Quotient” (a way of telling how much a person has contributed to the platform). The platform provides lots of tools to share ideas. Because of that, and in combination with the “non-reward-method”, it has a strong platform-structure. Splitting up the design process in different phases makes it easy to take decisions. From Solvers Perspective People don’t get physical things back for contributing. It is the joy of working together with lots of people in one project and the recognition (~exposure) out of that what makes the solver to participate. Because of the 3 different phases, people can contribute more easily to the phase in which they’re good at. One specific project in collaboration with Sony and WWF has been scoped out; evaluated seperately as a different case. From Seekers Perspective Most challenges are posted by companies. OpenIDEO approves only interesting/valuable challenges and only if they are “for the Social Good”. As such, there is already a good filter from the beginning. Outcomes are Open Source but can be used to make it “real” if seeker & solver are both interested in finding collaborative partners. Not sure about this, but companies probably have to make a little contribution to IDEO after the project, if that is in their power. Key Learnings • People contribute for free if they see the benefit of the project or get the recognition they’re look- Key Info ing for.

  • 22. E Open Planet Ideas From Platform Perspective The structure of this platform is completely the same as the OpenIDEO platform; some more tools are www.openplanetideas.com provided though (more social media connection, more language abilities, ...). Also very important is the addition of the “realisation”-phase. This makes the platform and the project more tangible. Because the website covers only one project, the project duration is really clear and people know what they can expect and when. Providing a clear communication and letting the user know which next steps are taken in the process makes everything more concrete. From Solvers Perspective The drive for people is a little bit different from a normal project on OpenIDEO. Because they are hav- ing only one project on the platform, the goal of what will happen is more clear and the contribution for that is also easier to communicate. People don’t get financial rewards for putting their ideas in the cloud, the “winning prize” is just being in the spotlights and getting recognition for your idea. You can get the chance to work with a big company that will make your idea tangible. The sustainable part is very important here. Nowadays, people want to care about the environment, and want to make their contribution to a better world: putting a world-changing idea on a platform. From Seekers Perspective Also here (~ Fold-it) two separated parties join together to cooperate and make one co-creation project. WWF supports from the sustainability side, where Sony supports from the technology side. They both need each other to make the co-creation easier to access for a broader audience. Thanks to the cooperation, the platform attracts both people interested in Sony and others interested in sustain- ability. A good sustainable project can’t survive when it doesn’t has the proper technology, and a good technology project can’t survive without a good context. Providing a platform in 5 main languages, makes this a really global project, where both initiators will get huge “diverse local insights”. Key Learnings • Making the platform accessible in different languages, makes it more “glocal”. More people can Key Info contribute, more diverse input is generated. US • Starting idea generation with existing technologies makes concepts stronger and more realistic. • Adding a realisation phase, makes it more interesting for solvers to contribute.

  • 23. F harKopen From Platform Perspective This platform is totally Open Source. No companies posting challenges, no specific rules for what can www.harkopen.com go to another phase or not, ... The fact that this “platform” runs by its own users makes it a powerful community-platform, where ideas level-up to a better product. Providing an offline- (city work spaces) as well as an online space (the platform) improves the motiva- tion to collaborate, and makes harKopen both global and hyperlocal. From Solvers Perspective The platform set-up was made to share/discuss projects with people with the same interest. People join this community because they are interested in the content. It is not about finding as many people that want to contribute with fresh ideas; it is about finding kindred spirits who want to give you advise and help you finalizing YOUR PROJECT. Aside from that, also other things are discussed in the community: where to buy the best parts online, what is the best local store, ... From Seekers Perspective As said before, this is a community of kindred spirits. People are looking for “people like me” to work together and to get feedback. Of course the virtual space has its limits when designing real hardware. HarKopen maps several local “Hackerspaces”, where people with common interests meet in real life. Thanks to this “local-minded approach”, the motivation of participation in harKopen is influenced in real life as well as online. People don’t participate because they can win prizes, rewards, ... They par- ticipate because it is the platform that brings all the “people like me” together, and where they can talk with peers from all over the world. Key Learnings • Providing an offline as well as an online space improves motivation to collaborate on the platform. Key Info • People are always looking for other “people like me”.

  • 24. G Flemish Living Lab Platform From Platform Perspective The Flemish Living Lab Platform is a good example of an offline co-creation initiative. Where for a good www.vlaamsproeftuinplatform.be/en online platform, the provided communication-tools are important to keep the platform alive and well, here the organisation structure is really important. Typical projects run for one single year, where the interaction frequence is really high. Again the project-timing is crucial for keeping the project “alive”. People know what they can expect and are more comfortable to act on that. From Solvers Perspective The participation of the user in the living lab is rather one directional. They co-create together with all other existing parties to think about new possibilities, giving feedback, ... but are not involved in the overall process. Their rewards for contribution are mostly financial, but that doesn’t exclude they might be participating out of other interests. Once people are recruited, they are also “available” for other projects, no matter what the subject may be. From Seekers Perspective The Flemish Living Lab is a government initiative, led by and in cooperation with different companies. Main organizer is a Belgian telecom operator (Telenet). Collaborating with different parties makes it possible to test different cases at the same time. It is perfectly possible that in one test-project both Internet-data-analyses and energy-efficiency are tested. Within this structure, different companies are working together, opening doors for collaboration in new innovative products and services.

  • 25. H Ushahidi From Platform Perspective Ushahidi itself is not a platform for co-creation. It is a company, providing software and tools to make www.ushahidi.com co-creation possible. Their greatest example is the open-source crowdmapping possibility: a way to collect data in a specific area, generated by the people in that area. One example is http://syriatracker. crowdmap.com, where people try to map the different types of crimes in Syria. From Solvers Perspective Most tools are used for solving problems that are society based, which are often local. As for example with the Syria Crime Map, all people in Syria “who don’t like crime” are possible contributors. Projects who use the Ushahidi mapping tool start mostly with a group of kindred spirits or goals. Providing different ways to collaborate in the crowdmapping (through email, text, SMS, ..), a good par- ticipation-base is created for people who like to contribute. From Seekers Perspective In this case the “seekers” are not the people of Ushahidi itself, it are the users of the tools. Mostly seek- ers and solvers are the same people (~kindred spirit). It are people who care about a common problem that is supported by the “real-life” local community. “It is an aim to provide a better place for you and your loved-ones”: this is mostly the starting point for the seekers’s initiative to use this open source tool.
