delivered a range of new open innovation pilots with kids, employees, and other brands.
What happened: The strategy was signed off by LEGO’s Board and is now being implemented across the
business, notably via LEGO Ideas, now the world’s largest crowdsourcing platform with 1 million members.

Sector: UK Government, Ministry of Defence
Our brief: How can the UK defence sector be more open and collaborative?
What we did: Our project ‘Opening the Door’ used stakeholder research and strategy workshops to prepare
the MOD’s Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl) for open innovation. We diagnosed MOD barriers
to open innovation, measured different aspects of the organisation’s readiness levels and designed a new
sector-wide system for collaboration.
What happened: OpenWorks created a UK defence open innovation blueprint that was accepted in full and is
now the subject of major upstream investment, up to £350m in the medium term. The blueprint helped the
MOD respond positively to a UK Government Strategic Defence Review and show how to network the nation’s
defence and promote UK growth via innovative SMEs and prime defence suppliers. 100%Open has since been
approached by a number of UK defence primes with a view to future partnerships.

develop as open innovation blueprint for sourcing new mobile payment technologies for small businesses.
What happened: We concluded that open innovation could increase Barclaycard’s agility and relevance, and
that interesting new service providers might even be found within Barclaycard’s existing customer base. Our
recommendations were accepted in full and are helping to inform the future direction of Barclaycard.

Our brief: Can open innovation promote economic growth in Colombia?
What we did: On behalf of the Colombian Government 100%Open designed and ran a global open innovation
programme called CO4 for 11 major Colombian organisations, from ship-building and finance to white goods
and confectionery. 100%Open and local partners Enlace created and ran 31 challenges to find new
technologies and partners. CO4 included collaboration skills development for the Colombian companies and
the 100%Open airlock process to create mutual trust and viable partnerships.
What happened: Over the course of 18 months we used our communications team and Venture Radar service
to build a global network of potential partners. We ran 10 national launch events across Colombia and
publicised the challenges globally. Our Discovery Platform received nearly 400 high quality submissions from
Asia and Europe as well as across South America. Each of the 11 Colombian organisations forged one or more
valuable new partnerships with entrepreneurs or new suppliers and the country now has a thriving open
innovation sector.

25. Union is 100%Open’s global network of over 3,500 innovation and marketing professionals in large
organisations. Union exists for the sole purpose of creating value by connecting contacts across every sector of
industry.
We meet up for an evening each quarter, hosted at a member’s HQ, in London and in Geneva. We have an
online community to keep the buzz going between meet-ups. To give you a flavour, recent events have taken
place at Google, Arup, Barclays and BBC in the UK and at Bacardi Martini, DuPont and CERN in Geneva. One of
the barriers to effective open innovation is the inability to meet enough interesting and different people in the
hurly-burly of corporate life. Union enables members to quickly source innovative technologies or new
partners for collaboration.
