Accelerating Innovation: From Idea to Creation

"Accelerating Innovation" brought together innovators, creators, and industry leaders for an immersive dive into the product design and development journey. Participants explored key principles in prototyping, cross-industry innovation, and visionary thinking, all aimed at turning today’s ideas into tomorrow’s solutions.

Our take-aways

Take-away #1 – think broader:

The event emphasized the importance of cross-industry insights and a broad, strategic mindset in innovation. Participants learned to identify and leverage “sleeping” intellectual property and embraced a change of perspective, highlighting the value of exploring diverse fields for unexpected inspiration.

Take-away #2 – create faster:

With a focus on action-oriented learning, the event reinforced the power of rapid prototyping and real-time feedback. By practicing quick cycles of validation and re-imagining ideas, participants gained skills to accelerate their own innovation journeys.

Take-away #3 – use networks:

Bringing together a rich mix of professionals, the event highlighted the value of collaborative networks in pushing boundaries and sparking new ideas. Alone, you may go faster, but together, innovation can go further.

A hands-on exploration: five interactive sessions

Participants could choose from five thoughtfully crafted sessions, each designed to address different stages of product development, echoing Creaholic’s unique approach that likens these phases to states of matter: gas, liquid, and solid. Attendees had the chance to participate in two sessions, providing an in-depth, hands-on learning experience:

Design Adventure

This session focused on rapid ideation and validation. Through practical exercises, attendees learned how to expedite the product development process, gaining insights into creative methodologies that help transform abstract ideas into actionable prototypes.

Cross-Pollinnovation

Participants explored the concept of “cross-pollination” across industries, uncovering how technologies from one sector can revolutionize another. This session illustrated how seemingly unrelated fields—like aerospace and sanitary systems—can innovate by sharing insights, and even resurrect “IP sleeping beauties” for new, high-impact applications.
