Abstract

The current interest in innovations has led to the initiation of a number of activities all over the world aimed at increasing the flow of ideas for new products and pursuing their development into useful results. In Scandinavia two large national contests have recently been completed, SWEDE-INNOVATION 81 [1] and NORDINNOVATION 83. This report summarizes some of the results and conclusions from the last mentioned project. The use of a contest to publicize the search for product ideas and to encourage widespread participation by inventors is not new; it has been tried many times. However, little is known about the results, the effects, the methods used, the cost of running it and many other essential details. A report on NORDINNOVATION 83 is felt to be of interest.
