Possible approaches:
- Jams
- Hackathons
- Design Sprints
- Startup Weekend - twist being - we are a distributed team, and teams start enterprises for different locations that are doing the same thing for common production
- Coopetition - like FIRST Robotics
- Meetup
- Incentive Challenge - organize a large number of sponsors interested in a technology, with a promise to produce at low cost via preorders
- Crowd Supply model - helping developers bring products to life. Electronics only.
- Local Motors model - incentive challenges, results not public
- HeroX model - incentive challenge; open to anyone
- FIRST Robotics model - coopetitions - but add purpose to it
- GrabCAD - incentive challenges - designs remain free.
- L'Atelier Paysan - model of proprietary development of agriculture tools.
OSE Narrative
What are known ways to use crowd development to achieve public-interest results? How can we innovate on this?
Ideally, a crowd-supported project would involve interested stakeholders providing sufficient development support to bring a product to market. Ideally, an incentive prize element exists, such that contributors are incentivized.
Learnings
- 99 Designs - We find that higher financial incentives do not translate to more effort by individual designers, but nonetheless have an impact on the quality outcome of contests by attracting a larger pool of designers - [1]
- Interesting HeroX challenge - $1M student space rocket challenge. Organized by Base 11. [2]
