About the event
Tips and examples from Mission projects.
Everyone heard about co-creation, multi-actor approach, engagement of value-chain actors, etc. The common point is that we need to openly collaborate with the key stakeholders and co-create the innovative solutions with them. Who to involve, engage, activate and how is a different matter. This short webinar will focus on how to describe open innovation and social innovation aspects in the proposal (section 1.2) and how to realise successfully these engagements when the project is implemented.
