This document summarizes the crowdsourcing process used by Atizo to generate ideas from online communities. Atizo uses a multi-module process to define challenges, generate ideas, evaluate ideas, and plan implementation. Examples are provided of companies that used Atizo's crowdsourcing platform to develop new products, improve processes, and find marketing ideas. The results included hundreds of ideas from diverse community members to help companies achieve their innovation goals in a more open and cost-effective manner than working alone.

35. 7 steps to more innovation
1. Innovating behind closed doors is over.
2. There are many smart people who want to support you.
3. Innovation begins with a challenge, not an idea.
4. Tunnel vision is not conducive for innovation.
5. The best idea is often created from several good ideas.
6. The sooner the customer is involved, the less the risk to flop.
7. Ideas are valuable only when they are implemented.

36. Innovation is not a problem of
creativity, but a problem of allocation.
