The Innovation Diffusion Litmus Test

The Innovation Diffusion Litmus Test enables you to forecast how long it will take for your innovation to travel from ideation to market saturation. The individual questions then enable you to identify and implement actionable interventions which accelerate that diffusion as desired. The forecast is based on your assessment of key questions related to your innovation and the group of individuals that is needed to diffuse it based on the narrative of the generic innovation diffusion web available at https://open-european-innovation-network.blogspot.com/2020/01/the-narrative-for-generic-diffusion-of.html.

The Test is an Excel(R) based tool that can be downloaded for free from https://sourceforge.net/projects/entov-hvm/files/ENTOV-HVM/.

The Test focuses on key accelerators for innovation diffusion to late adopters and is designed to be completed without prior knowledge of the body of knowledge underpinning the test. While in-depth analysis are available, the test focuses on being "good enough" to enable you to accelerate without further guidance.

The Test is ideally completed as a semi-structured interview with an accredited ENTOV-HVM advisor, however it can be completed independently as desired. If you email the completed test to info@innovation-web.eu  then we offer a free one hour online debrief with comparison of your assessment results to relevant other assessment results we have gathered.

Key capabilities include:

1. Assess the maturity of your innovation (Suitability for Innovators, Early Adopters and Late Adopters).
2. Assess the maturity of the group of individuals needed to diffuse your innovation (Forming, Exploring, Education/Training and Performing).
3. Assess the overall maturity of your venture (Do not launch / Improve / Launch).
4. Forecast how long it will take for your innovation to diffuse to the late majority adopters (therefore 84% market share).
5. Identify actionable interventions to accelerate the diffusion of your innovation and simulate their impact.

Accelerating the Diffusion of Green Hydrogen Solutions - Introducing an Innovative Masters Thesis

Bild
The Open European Network for Enterprise Innovation is supporting an innovative Masters Thesis being conducted at the Technical University of LIsbon by a great young colleague  Lourenço Horta Correia. Please see below for more information and do feel free to reach out to him if you have ideas / can support his efforts with case studies. The image shows the first sketches of supply chain pathways and will be extended continuously to illustrate existing and planned pathways with their relevant diffusion performance and innovation opportunities. The world is facing unprecedented challenges regarding climate change and Green House Gases (GHG) emissions and the European Union is responding to these issues setting an ambitious yet attainable action plan for a systematic transformation towards a carbon-neutral continent by 2050. Green Hydrogen – meaning hydrogen produced from renewable energies – will be a major player for a sustainable energy transition as an energy carrier with numerous...

Design Principle #4 for 84% Innovation Adoption – Technology Readiness Level

Bild
This series of blog posts describes the principles relevant for designing an innovation for rapid adoption by 84% of a target group. 84% adoption is the threshold for achieving sustainable change. The underlying theory stems from the "invisible college" around Rogers, E.M. (2003) “Diffusion of Innovations.” which reminds us that adopters are grouped as Innovators 2%, Early Adopters 14%, Early Majority 34%, Late Majority 34% and Laggards 16%. Designing innovations (and the change intended by them) to reach the Late Majority is a very different game than that typically "played" (which actually only focuses on the Innovators and Early Adopters). Such "designs" depend on understanding our own body of work which skilfully integrates systems thinking, living systems principles, complexity thinking etc. None of the design principles we will discuss are “innovative” – it their blending and orchestration to achieve 84% adoption that is the art of “deep diffusion”...

Forecasting Whole Life Cycle Cost Uncertainty of EU Municipalities - Consolidator/Marie Curie Proposals

Bild
T ogether with Lisbon University Instituto Superior Técnico Department of Civil Engineering and relevant research team (to be determined), we will be preparing an ERC Consolidator grant request for submission in mid-October 2021 with funding decision expected in March 2022 (see https://erc.europa.eu/news/calls-2022-tentative-dates ). This proposal will include one or more post-doctoral positions for which we will set up individual / parallel Marie Skłodowska-Curie European Fellowship applications (see https://ec.europa.eu/research/mariecurieactions/actions/individual-fellowships_en and https://ec.europa.eu/research/mariecurieactions/actions/get-funding_en ). Title: “A Framework for Forecasting Whole Life Cycle Cost Uncertainty of EU Municipalities” Abstract: “Directly and indirectly people and societies task nations and cities to aspire to the UN Sustainable Development Goals. A primary challenge on this journey is forecasting the related whole life cycle costs as robustly as poss...
