Ryan & Becca are back together once again and this week we're talking mobile studios! We received a question about the viability of using a mobile studio in a trailer, van, etc to assist in teaching small kid classes and selling at shows from it. Becca's insights may surprise you on this one. Thanks for the question Lilly!Listener QuestionsOn this episode:- I have been trying to get a little more consistency in my drying. Currently I have a rack that is taped up with plastic but occasionally still have some cracking issues that are due to parts drying faster than others. My question is what is an optimal humidity level for drying, and or temperature? @roycroftron- What do you think of mobile studios? I have researched this somewhat and have seen a few examples of teardrop camper studios, food truck studios parked on a small plot of land, teaching studios in a bus or van, etc. I already really hate dragging all of my stuff to shows in a small-sized SUV, and I'm only a baby potter. I'm super jealous of the flower lady who has a cute, tiny truck at the farmers markets to sell from. People LOVE her setup. I also haul all my stuff back and forth to teach kids classes. Becca, have you ever worked out of your van selling/teaching? Would a mobile studio be a good idea as a business investment vs. a brick and mortar shop when you can't teach at home? Do you know any potters with mobile studios? Maybe a mobile studio would come with its own costs and restrictions. Would appreciate any insight you might have on mobile studios! @tuliptreetalesSend us questions so we can answer anything you've been thinking about on a future episode.

Turkish mobile studio Dream Games has raised $155 million in Series B funding to continue supporting its debut title, Royal Match. The latest funding round was led by Index Ventures and Makers Fund, and means Dream is now valued at $1 billion. The Istanbul-based company was established by a group of former Peak Games employees in 2019 and had already raised $50 million in March this year. Dream CEO and co-founder Soner Aydemir explained the cash will be used to "grow [Royal Match] everywhere," with the match-3 puzzler having climbed into the top-20 grossing charts in the UK, US, and Germany within three months of launch while also racking up over 6 million monthly active users. "We are very focused on making great games that appeal to all types of players across the globe," said Aydemir. "We are very proud of the early success of Royal Match and will utilize the investment to grow the game everywhere. We are very excited about our investors' confidence in the potential for Dream Games." https://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/384428/Mobile_studio_Dream_Games_nets_155_million_in_funding_at_1_billion_valuation.php --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pixel-sultan/support

Austin-based mobile studio Cerberus Interactive has secured $1.75 million in funding to further develop its 'marketing-first' approach to game design.

This is a special two-hour radio episode I put together of the CFRU Mobile Community Radio show - today's show includes a conversation with Kelly McCullough of the urbanartsguelph.ca MADE program and Dan Evans of the Guelph Neighbourhood Support Coalition. I brought these two on the show because all three of our projects explore the value of breaking molds, exploring accessibility through a lens that includes comfort, trust, and empowerment, and demonstrating the power of building community in alternative spaces. The second part of the show is an older interview from the spring of 2016 - Bry Webb interviewed me in my early days of running the pilot-project version of the Mobile Studio, and it's kind of awesome to hear the feelings about it so early in its operation. Hopefully these two conversations will help shed some light on CFRU's Mobile Studio, what it is, what I do, and why it's an important project to support in our community .

Early in my career one man who had a huge impact on me, my mentor Bob Davis, told me to pay it forward. As Killer Innovations kicks off Season 15 this week, we reflect on what it has meant to pay it forward. Challenging and encouraging others toward impactful innovation has been my passion. Kym McNicholas joins me on the show as we look back at the Killer Innovations evolution from simple podcast to syndicated radio show. Worth It Having enjoyed success as a career innovator, I decided in 2005 it was time to pay it forward by inspiring impactful innovation on a larger scale. I owe much of my success to the people in my life who have mentored me and led me in the direction for success. As my way of giving back to my mentors, I chose to encourage others in innovation. Jumping back to Season 1, the feedback from listeners all over the world for Killer Innovations has motivated me to keep going. Having an impact on people through their innovation journey is the impetus. Along the way, I've developed lasting friendships with many long-time listeners worldwide. Getting Started As podcasting emerged in late 2004, I began experimenting with it. The critical piece of technology enabling podcasting, the enclosure tag, allowed for media distribution. By March 2005, I jumped in with my first Killer Innovations episode. It was a bit like the Wild West. I modeled myself after Earl Nightingale, a motivational speaker whose tapes and cassettes inspired me. With a laptop and a microphone, I began the podcast from a hotel. That was the start of it. Making an Impact Then and Now One eye-opening comment I received in the first year of the show has stuck with me. It was from an avid listener whose son, a young listener of nine years old, took the inspiration to heart. He started taking items apart in the home to "innovate" them. That boy is now 23 years old and I would love to hear from him. I hope he's doing creative and innovative things. Guests I've had an opportunity to talk to from across the country are doing impactful innovation. With the Mobile Studio, we've been stopping in small towns to find innovation in unexpected places. Guests in the past year from Fin Gourmet Foods are innovating in such unique ways on multiple levels. The workforce is one facet of that innovation - investing in the lives of people who need a second chance. [shareable cite="Kym McNicholas"]Some of the best innovators take those really big, calculated risks.[/shareable] Fin Gourmet Foods is a great example of how innovation doesn't have to be tech or happen in Silicon Valley. Helping people innovate their own lives is impactful innovation at its best. Guests Who've Inspired Us Guests are an integral part of the show. As they share their innovation experience and lessons learned, we gain some valuable lessons. One guest who has inspired us is Noah Scalin. His strategy to spark creativity is another great example of impactful innovation. An artist based in Richmond, VA, Noah faced a creative block. To re-ignite his creativity, he started the Skull-a-Day project. Another guest who's personally inspired me is Tom Fishburne. His on-point marketing themed cartoons show the power of creativity and influence. His impact on people through humor is amazing. Evolution of Killer Innovations From starting out in a hotel room to now rolling around in the Mobile Studio, Killer Innovations continues to grow and change. Kym recalls how she and I met - chasing the latest Tech at CES. Now the Mobile Studio, a fully equipped 44-foot custom bus, is my studio and office while on the road. In addition to the Mobile Studio, the show has gone from being fully funded by me to having sponsors. With the sponsorship, we are now able to pay it forward with ads for nonprofits such as Hacking Autism and Pioneer Education Africa. The community of listeners, like Chris Woodruff, continues to impact me and others. Innovation doesn't happen in a vacuum. Recently, we created The Innovators Community. Open to anyone interested in innovation, it's a place where people can share their ideas and ask for advice from others in the innovation game. Five Minutes to New Ideas Don't fall into a rut repeating the same formula to solve every problem. You need fresh eyes. Look at things in a new light. This week's Five Minutes to New Ideas will challenge you to use fresh eyes to find game-changing innovations. Glad you could join us for the kick-off of Season 15. Thanks for taking the time to listen to the show. If you have any questions or comments, I'd love to hear from you. Drop me a line.
Getting around in the big city can be easier than in smaller, less populated locations. In many areas across the country, getting from point A to point B is dependent on having a vehicle. This can present a challenge for people who don't have access to a personal vehicle. With this in mind, our guests today are solving this problem for communities in Ohio. At the Consumer Electronics Show, co-founders of SHARE, Ryan and Hoa McManus, join us in the Mobile Studio. Ryan and Hoa tell us about seizing the opportunity with microtransit innovation. What evolving transit demographics are shaping this corner of transportation? What innovative changes are upcoming? SHARE has a new angle on microtransit: meeting the needs of an overlooked market. Going Places SHARE, a startup founded 2-1/2 years ago, has been contributing to a better future in ride systems. Their focus is to provide regularly scheduled transit for the trips people take the most. Trust is at the center. They serve school systems, healthcare systems, and workers commuting. SHARE fills the gap between public transport and ride-sharing. It's affordable and reoccurring, flexible and reliable. This benefits a significant unmet market: senior citizens. The number of cities that the company serves continues to grow. SHARE is proving to be a model of microtransit innovation - a safe and efficient transport system. SHARE gets people where they need to be on a daily and weekly basis. Investing in the Team Packing up and moving across the country, Ryan and Hoa joined an incubator. They weathered the highs and lows. Finishing the incubator program, they promptly informed their investors about their decision to pivot. As I say, always invest in the team rather than the tech. Their investors stuck with them. They then joined an accelerator program. From buying their first vehicles, to operating a fleet of vehicles, the tough decisions were made. As SHARE grows, it confirms those were the right decisions. Microtransit Innovation: Lessons Learned Through their shared experience as co-founders, Ryan and Hoa have learned different things. For Ryan, a resounding lesson is to have more clearly defined roles. Startups can get overwhelmed if they don't establish who does what from the very start. Everyone should know where they fit and what their tasks include. It will come together if things are organized and understood. This way, the team can efficiently move towards the end goal. Hoa's major lesson was to have grit amid the challenges as a woman entrepreneur in the transportation industry. Bouncing back from the low points builds endurance. Facing off with the innovation antibodies with grit makes all the difference. It's a marathon, not a sprint. Want to find out more about Ryan's and Hoa's microtransit innovation through SHARE? Track what they're doing on their website ridewithshare.com, or on Facebook (facebook.com/ridewithshare/) and Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/ridewithshare/). We're starting Season 15 of Killer Innovations in March. We'd love to hear your thoughts on what you'd like to see and hear on Killer Innovations for the next season and beyond. Drop me a line and let me know. Five Minutes to New Ideas This week's Five Minutes to New Ideas examines the importance of building onto existing products that are lacking. Sometimes, making that 180 degree turn from the existing norm can really pay off. Forget the obvious solution. Take a crazy gamble. Could you create a standardized offering of a custom product? Don't be afraid to go the opposite direction from everyone else.
If you've attended the Consumer Electronics Show for many years, your perspective can be invaluable. For Tim Bajarin, preeminent Silicon Valley analyst and President of Creative Strategies, this is his 44th CES. When he speaks, the tech industry listens. Tim joins us in the Mobile Studio to give his impressions on CES 2019. What trends does Tim notice? Which innovations will impact our future? Overall, CES 2019 is one of incremental innovation. Nevertheless, there are innovation gems that can prove to be life savers and game changers. Trends that Matter Of the ever-evolving innovations at CES, Tim is intrigued by those in the health area. This year he sees a strong emphasis on digital tech impacting people's health. The Omron blood pressure watch, the first of its kind, is one of those innovations that will have huge impact. For Tim, the health care innovations are fascinating in their far-reaching effect, but also on a personal note. As more people face health issues and aging in place becomes a focus, the tech world has taken on the challenges. Stay tuned for blood pressure on the iPhone. Ahead of Its Time Tim recalls the flexible displays I worked on while at HP. Well, they've caught on and come a long way. Flexible displays are a big opportunity. LG's rollable TV is staggering in its resolution, durability, and sheer size. The breakthrough of flexible displays is shown in multiple ways at CES, especially in television display. The use cases for others are yet to be seen. It's incremental innovation applied in new ways that's captured the public's attention. Feature Wars Tim and I talk about what I like to call the 'feature war' in the chase for ever increasing resolution displays. Although content is lacking for 4K, the TV makers are pushing towards 8K and beyond. 8K is a big deal at CES 2019. Expect to see it making a breakthrough, especially since Japan has made 8K broadcasting a requirement for the 2020 Olympics. Keep eyes out for its appearance next year. The distinction between High Definition HDR displays and 4K is not easy to perceive. In fact, people notice the color more so in the High Definition HDR. When asked to identify the 4K display, people actually chose the High Definition HDR more often. Similar is the difference between 4K and 8K. The industry moves forward towards 12K and 16K. Are these increasing resolutions useful to consumers? The competitors in the resolution race may at some point need to reassess the needs of the consumer. Audio Innovations Tim talks about the medical devices that are becoming game changers. Namely, hearing aids with a fine tune audio capturing. The movement in the sound technology means lower costs to consumers for a basic health care need. Innovations of better audio-centered hearing aids are on the rise. Starkey, the leading hearing aid maker, is going the next step tying Alexa into the hearing aid. What the tech world is missing is a focus on audio. The tech industry has razor sharp focus on optics, with little attention to audio. As AR and VR grows, some attention to audio will be necessary. Starkey's new product will tie in to AR use. The incremental transference of heightened audio is something to get excited about. No longer will the cost be daunting for the consumer. These devices will grow with you while adding more freedom. Apple Services New Direction Apple announced they'll be working with major TV manufacturers to bundle Apple services iTunes and Airplay on TVs. Apple is setting the groundwork for their services, moving their services in new directions through collaborative efforts. With Apple services bringing in $10 billion a quarter, it's becoming a dedicated focus. Thank you to Tim Bajarin for his return to our show. My Review In this show, Tim and I touch on innovations in healthcare. It's a topic close to Tim and me. For example, I've had to use a hearing aid for a number of years. I was given a pair from Eargo to try out. I had an opportunity to meet with the head of innovation at Starkey. It's exciting what's happening in hearing aid innovations. Aging in place is becoming a focus and challenge. We're seeing incremental innovations in this area. As consumers age, tech is addressing the needs of the aging population. Both Tim are I skeptical about the increasing resolution feature wars. What is a feature war? Industry locks on to a feature and trains the customer to buy the product with the best offering for that feature. There may be minimal or no advantage to the upgraded feature, but it's the hook to catch the customer. Innovators beware: don't get caught up in a feature war. Pick your differentiation carefully. This year is the year of incremental innovation at CES. It alternates from year to year between high impact innovation and incremental innovation. Not every company has dipped into this tick tock pattern. There are some companies at CES doing the high impact innovations. We'll be looking at those in upcoming weeks. If you know of a big impact innovation, let me know. Drop me a note. Five Minutes to New Ideas Consumer complaints and product feedback can turn your product around. Don't stop at simply resolving an issue. Instead, ask the question, "Who complains about my product?" This week's Five Minutes to New Ideas examines how customer feedback and complaints have changed the way some companies do business.

As the hype settles, practical AI emerges. The use of AI in various forms is gaining traction. Who can benefit from AI and how? Steve Guggenheimer, Microsoft VP of AI and ISV, joins us in the Mobile Studio at CES 2019. He shares his thoughts on CES and how AI is taking shape. The cool AI of last year gives way to the practical AI of today. CES 2019: Electronics and More Steve, like myself, is a CES veteran. He's been coming to the show for years. What has stood out about CES 2019? Clearly, it's no longer just about electronics. In fact, technology has taken over with just about every industry represented. Yet, for Steve, there hasn't been a clear theme for CES 2019 above the din. A noticeable change over the years is the companies represented. Among the TV manufacturers that have dominated in the past, new companies and relatively recent ones are taking center stage. From Amazon and Google to startups and new Chinese companies, CES 2019 is quite different from that of 15 years ago. Some of the trends Steve noticed were smart homes, AI, Mixed Reality, and quantum. Besides the displays, one of the biggest benefits of CES is the side meetings. CES brings all the right people together. It's the perfect chance to schedule meetings with customers, clients, partners the world over without having to travel all over the world. Overhype, Disillusionment, and the New Wave Although some things are overhyped, companies are less prone these days to hype their products. Things get notice and tracked. As Steve puts it, he sees "less of companies sticking their necks out." The hype is still there and often it's propagated by press with limited tech savvy. With too much hype raising expectation, the trough of disillusionment looms. Both Steve and I have done vision videos. Rather than hype, vision videos convey the work of innovation and how it can play out in the future. Innovation takes investment, commitment, and time. Overhype doesn't factor that. The building blocks of yesterday – compute, storage, networking - are not the building blocks of today. IoT, blockchain, AI are the new wave of building blocks. People need to get out of the hype cycle and see the horizon. AI and ISV At Microsoft, Steve works with ISVs. Steve helps line of business ISVs move towards SaaS. In addition, his focus is on AI. As AI is becoming a hardened layer in the stack, cognitive services research is moving into APIs. This is the work of the Microsoft Azure team. Of the basic elements of AI – the cloud, data, the algorithms – the rate of change for the algorithms has "accelerated immensely." The innovation in machine learning comprehension tool sets is "superfast". AI from the Front Row AI is multi-faceted. Some areas of AI are picking up quickly. Others are slower. While the more complex, integrated AI takes more time, some AI aspects that are gaining traction include: Virtual Agents – bots that are proactive, reactive and conversational AI enhanced tools for professionals – lawyers, doctors, marketing Knowledge management - making a broad set of information easier to graph Autonomous systems Combining computer vision and other tools to digitize a physical space The practical AI Steve promotes requires a logical approach. For building a long-term asset, BI must come before AI. The questions he asks steer towards purposeful AI: Is your data in order to do something with? What do you actually want to build yourself versus use what others have? Where do you want to customize? Want to build a business out of it? Let's talk. Is AI Right for You? To help companies determine if AI is right for them, Steve has more questions for companies to ask: How do I want to use AI to run my company better? Should I build, buy, or partner? Where do I want to infuse AI? How do I differentiate my company with AI? What do you want to add value to? How do you want to add value for your customer? If AI will not add value in the right areas, don't do it. When AI Fails Often, it's the bespoke AI project that fails. AI developed around data that is no longer tied to the core data can quickly lose its relevancy. Failure is common with the bespoke AI project done to impress senior leadership without regard for its actual value to the business. Another fail is the grand vision that is impossible to implement given situation and resources. It could be a lack of expertise, financial backing, or executive patience. Ethics and AI Ethical AI is an important issue. To lay out their viewpoint and start the conversation, Microsoft issued The Future Computed. Steve advises that companies using AI have a framework for addressing ethics and AI. If you would like to track what Steve is doing at Microsoft, visit the Microsoft AI webpage. You can also track him on Twitter or LinkedIn. Thank you to Steve Guggenheimer for once again joining us on the show. Five Minutes to New Ideas Could you cut the price of your product by 25%?

Cars that walk. TVs that roll up. From rising stars to tech titans, the atmosphere at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2019 has been high energy. To consider what's fueling that energy, I talk to the host of CES, Consumer Technology Association (CTA). Joining us in the Mobile Studio is Rachel Horn, CTA Communications Director. She shares the CES 2019 tech trends, a few of her favorites, and why CES is so amazing. CES Breaking Records With 180 million plus attendees and 155 countries represented, CES is the largest tech and business event in the world. It covers 2.9 million square feet of exhibitor space in Las Vegas. CES 2019 is breaking records. More than just bigger, this year's CES unlocks new opportunities. For the first time, medical professionals obtained continuing medical education credit for attending CES. This allows medical professionals to observe and learn about the latest medical tech and tech trends first hand. Eureka Park, with reasonable exhibit rates, makes CES accessible for startups, entrepreneurs, and small businesses. It boasts 1,200 exhibitors. From simple products that make life easier to larger than life exhibits that give an awe-inspiring glimpse into the future, CES 2019 delivers something for everyone. Big Impressions Looking outside the window of the Mobile Studio is the two-story Google complex. It's akin to an amusement park ride and with people queued up to get in. The rollercoaster ride takes people through the Google story. The stakes are high for attention-grabbing at CES. The Bell Nexus Air Taxi display was phenomenal. During a private tour, this look at future transport awed a group of CEOs and me. As TV display tech leaps further ahead each year, the display manufacturers dominate the floor. The LG 4K rollable TV was exciting to see. With all the spectacle, it's a stiff competition to stand out. CES raises the bar. But not everything has to be big to shine. Some of the more interesting trends were seen on a smaller scale at Eureka Park. CES 2019 Tech Trends AI and 5G were the pervasive tech trends. Across the board, products are sensory, connected, collecting data, analyzing, and customizing the consumer experience. From health to lifestyle, AI is making things simpler, personalized, safer. Among noteworthy trends was digital health, especially wearables. Silicon Valley Tech Analyst Tim Bajarin was on the trail of digital health devices. He was impressed with a watch that can take blood pressure readings. There are devices to continuously measure blood glucose and manage pain without medication. These tech advances can truly transform our lives, giving people greater control over their health and wellness. A number of products addressed aging in place. Some tech products on display included smart beds, fall detection products, remote monitors. These impactful innovations have taken a front row. The competition among companies in the area of medical devices has propelled some further ahead. Such is the case with Starkey, the hearing aid company, which incorporates AI into its latest product. Little Things That Make a Difference While the big technologies draw the crowds, the little things that make life easier are equally impressive. Rachel noticed the Neutrogena MaskID, which uses mobile phone tech to analyze skin and create a customized face mask. Another innovation on Rachel's must-have list is the Ring Mouse (EasySMX Ring Mouse by Padrone). The Ring Mouse fits on the fingertip, is Bluetooth enabled, and pairs with a phone or laptop. Tactigon Skin is an interesting one hand controller device that has a number of uses. Technologies such as these that simplify life and make us more productive will transform the way we do things. Taking Care of Business Many international businesses consider CES the launch platform. It's also the place to meet with investors, retailers, partners. The average CES attendee schedules 33 meetings. Not only does the CTA host CES, but it holds a number of events throughout the year. If you'd like to know more about CTA, visit https://www.cta.tech/. If you weren't able to visit CES this year, catch keynote videos, panel videos, and other highlights at https://www.ces.tech/. You can also keep up to date on the latest with CES on Twitter or Instagram. Five Minutes to New Ideas Do you really know who your customers are and how they use your product? As HP CTO, I was taken by surprise when the local bakery tailored the HP TouchSmart for use as an order kiosk. Are there more uses for your product than you imagined? How can your customer help you discover the potential? Five Minutes to New Ideas explores customers' creative hacks and what that means for you.

When delivery fails, it costs in more ways than one. In today's show, I talk with Santiago Navarro, founder and CEO of Garçon Wines. Santiago shares his unique solution to a constraint that caused major problems for his online wine business. Based in the UK, Santiago developed a packaging innovation that ensures delivery the first time. But his flat wine bottle does much more than simply guarantee delivery. This constraint-based innovation gives rise to market opportunities beyond the mailbox. Constraints that Spark Innovation Santiago's online wine business suffered because wine bottles would not fit through the traditional UK mailbox. Failed deliveries cost the business. This was the spark for his flat wine bottle innovation. In developing the bottle design, other constraints factored. When it comes to wine, heritage and tradition are strong elements. The wine bottle designs used today date back 200 years and are steeped in tradition. The challenge was to toe the line of tradition as much as possible with the packaging innovation. Another constraint was aesthetics. The new design had to present well on the table. In the case of this constraint-based innovation, the constraints further refined the product. Shaping the Flat Wine Bottle The design process involved focus on three circles of a Venn diagram: Aesthetic, emotional and experiential in one circle, Function and functionality in another circle, Sustainability in the third circle. Respect for tradition along with these elements helped to shape the design. The result was a packaging innovation that solves a number of problems. Aside from cost savings, the flat wine bottle leaves a smaller carbon footprint. It minimizes the space needed in delivery. The bottle is made of post-consumer recyclable material. This also makes the packaging innovation friendly to the environment. Timing is Everything The flat wine bottle has gained broad acceptance. Leaders in wine and wine logistics are taking notice. Airlines, where space is a premium, are interested. His packaging innovation has won awards and received plenty of media attention. In fact, I posted an article on the flat wine bottle at The Innovator's Community, which led to this show. [shareable cite="Santiago Navarro, Founder Garçon Wines"]For us, it's fundamentally important to take our business customers through an innovation journey, not a sales process.[/shareable] The desire for convenience, sustainability and cost savings resonates with people. The timing is right for the flat wine bottle. It's a wine bottle for the 21st century. But Santiago recognizes that not everyone is ready to embrace it. He doesn't want to rush it. Words of Advice It took years to get his packaging innovation from idea to market. Reflecting on this, Santiago says don't give up if you believe in what you're doing. He offers another word of advice for those innovating a physical product. Get a minimum viable product (MVP) as soon as possible. This is essential when presenting your idea to people. It will save time and money in the long run. For details on Garçon Wines, visit www.garconwines.com. Today's Guest Santiago Navarro is founder and CEO of Garçon Wines, creator of the flat wine bottle. He is a serial entrepreneur, launching his first start-up, Vinopic Wines, in 2011. He is also co-founder of Nightly.travel, an online hotel booking site. You may follow him on Twitter at SantiagoBiz. You may also reach him through The Innovators Community (www.theinnovators.community), a free online community for innovators. [xyz-ihs snippet="Packaging-Innovation-S14-Ep38"] Thanks for taking the time out of your busy schedule to listen. Would you help me pay back my early mentor by paying it forward? Share the show with others. Give us a rating wherever you get your podcasts. We are getting ready for CES 2019. If you know someone who will be at CES and would be a great guest on the show, drop me a line. We will be hosting Killer Innovations in the Mobile Studio at CES. If you'll be there, stop by the Mobile Studio to check it out. For more on innovation, check out my book, Beyond the Obvious including extensive excerpts, over at beyondtheobvious.com.

For innovation leaders, one of the hardest tasks is keeping the innovation funnel full. Yet, this is key to sustaining an innovation effort. What's worked for me is to create an innovation challenge. Today's show lays out a process for making an innovation challenge. Creating a challenge will keep the funnel stocked with high quality ideas. What's an Innovation Challenge? An innovation challenge is no mere cattle call. A vague request for innovative ideas from everyone will result in low quality ideas and not many. An innovation challenge is a well-defined effort to draw in the best and non-obvious ideas. It invites those whose daily job may not be innovation. It opens up the funnel to unique perspectives. [shareable cite="Phil McKinney"]The wisdom of the crowd is always more powerful than the wisdom of one. [/shareable] An innovation challenge requires two things. 1) Crafting an innovation challenge statement. 2) Creating the process that invites people to submit their ideas. Innovation is a team sport. But if you limit the game to those on your innovation team, you may be missing out. While the innovation team is busy bringing ideas to market, the funnel is drying up. You need backup. Use the power of the crowd to help fill your funnel with breakthrough, game changing ideas. Defining the Challenge To get your innovation challenge started, begin with focus. It's the "F" in the FIRE framework (Focus, Ideation, Ranking, Execution). Create a focused innovation challenge statement. The key elements of the challenge statement answer who, what, and when. Who is the target for the innovation? What is the problem or opportunity? When will the challenge be realized? Those invited to participate in your challenge will answer the "how." The more specific and targeted your statement, the better the ideas that result. In fact, the smart use of constraints will also improve the quality and impact of the ideas submitted. Take time to get your innovation challenge statement right. Once you've drafted the statement, test it with a small group of people. Listen carefully to feedback and make changes. Test it two to three times before releasing the final innovation challenge statement. Setting Up the Challenge In deciding how to run the challenge, determine: What constitutes success in the innovation challenge? Is it the number of ideas received? Is it the attention the challenge generates for the sponsor? Is it the innovative solution to an actual problem? To whom will the challenge be open? Will it be open to the general public? Will it be internal to the organization? Will it be by invitation only? What is the motivation to participate? Will the challenge offer prize money, royalties, investment in the idea? Will name recognition or promotion be the motivator? Consult a legal team while developing the challenge. The legal team can help set clear guidelines on who owns an idea that's been entered. Launching the Challenge Once you've got your challenge statement and structured the challenge, you need participants. The next step is promoting the challenge. Find out where your target participants hang out. What social media are they on? If the innovation is a social challenge, engage the press in promoting it. Use the networks of others to reach out. If you're opening an innovation challenge to the public, drop me a note. Or join The Innovators Community and promote your challenge there. Keep promoting the challenge until it closes. After the Challenge Once you've created and launched the challenge, here are some points to keep in mind. Recognize the best ideas. Call out the people who came up with them. Keep every idea. It may be useful in the future. The difference between a good idea and a great idea is rarely the idea. It's the timing. Set up a regular schedule if an innovation challenge will become part of your long-term strategy. This will allow people to prepare for your next challenge. Now go out and create an innovation challenge that will fill that funnel with game changing ideas.

Big corporate innovation or startup getting off the ground, the challenges are similar. Amy Radin knows something of both. She went from direct marketing to becoming the first Chief Innovation Officer of Citibank. Now she advises startups. Her latest book, The Change Maker's Playbook, offers insight on getting your innovation from idea to scaling. In today's show, Amy defines what it means to be a change maker and how to win in the innovation game. The Change Maker at Work As the internet emerged, Amy recognized its future impact. Her direct marketing experience gave her insight. She went on to lead digital transformation at Citibank. She knows first-hand the hard work of corporate innovation. The nature of big companies is "predictability" and "continuity." Innovation disrupts that momentum. Amy prepared for resistance by pulling together a strong, diverse, collaborative team. She built strong partnerships. And she used her direct marketing skills. Amy put consumer insight up front: know the customer's unmet need, then meet it with technology. [shareable cite="Amy Radin, Author The Change Maker's Playbook"]I think tough problems are more likely to be solved when you have diversity of thought, expertise, perspective, life experience.[/shareable] Corporate Innovator versus Startup When it comes to innovation, do corporate innovators and startups have anything in common? Amy interviewed innovators from large and small sized companies across sectors. She found that the "how" differs, but the challenges are similar. The startup has speed, passion, and purpose. The less agile corporate entity has the advantage of resources, scale, and brand infrastructure. With each having its advantage, the real success for corporations and startups is to partner. Defining a Change Maker A change maker finds a solution to a market problem. With purpose and passion, the change maker drives the idea to execution and scaling. Through hurdles and successes, the change maker sees it through. In reality, rarely is it one person who does it all. The change maker is a team. One person may have the initial idea and leadership. That person brings the right team together, finding those who have the skills to fill the gaps. This team becomes the change maker. Framework for Innovation Amy has developed a framework for innovation. It's based on thorough research and her own experience. Through interviews with founders, investors and corporate innovators across sectors, she formed this practical approach. The pillars of this framework are seek, seed, scale. Seek Once an idea takes root, focusing on target users' insights. Finding answers through users' behavior. Seed Validating your concept through prototype. Connecting user insights to your business model. Scale Amy calls it the "green light moment" Confirm you have what's needed to scale. Key Advice from a Change Maker Amy's key advice for innovators and change makers is to listen. Listen to users so you can fully grasp their needs. Listen to those you need to influence. Listen for the emotional reaction. In Amy's words, "360 listening is going to help change makers be more successful." To learn more about Amy's framework for innovation and how to be a change maker, read The Change Maker's Playbook. Find excerpts and a free download infographic on seek, seed, scale at Amy's website.

From my shows on this year's CES, you'll know I'm leery of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the many companies touting it. On the flip side, I have also featured some interesting ventures into AI. When I heard that Box was delving into AI, I had to learn more. In this show, hear how Box's content management innovation increases the value of content stored. Can Awesome Get Better? Box offers cloud content and file sharing for businesses large and small. This company has a solid reputation and millions of users. I have used Box since the inception of my Killer Innovations show. Through Box, I also worked with my editor, publisher, and fact checkers on my book, Beyond the Obvious. Before that, my team at HP used Box. I'm definitely a fan. But how can AI be applied to content sitting in a cloud? Today Jeetu Patel, Box Chief Product Officer, shares how AI is changing the value of content in Box. This company is developing smarter ways to manage their customers' critical asset – their content. The Megatrend Tailwind Jeetu watches the megatrends. He's seen three megatrends impacting our world. Two, the cloud and the mobile revolution – have had profound effects on how we all do business. Jeetu sees AI as the tailwind powering the next wave of innovation. Riding this wave, Box goes beyond merely a repository of content. Through content management innovation, Box brings value to the content their customers entrust them with. Machine learning organizes and tags the content. In a complex world, things just got simpler. Content residing in Box becomes worth more inside the Box platform than outside it. Help! I Can't Find … Box's customer content is doubling every 12 – 14 months. The exponential growth of content is overwhelming. It can make finding any particular bit of data time consuming. With this customer problem in mind, Box has introduced AI machine learning to their platform. Box Skills, launched last year, uses sophisticated tagging mechanisms to label, classify and transcribe content. This content management innovation enables quick, precise retrieval of objects and text within content files. Machine learning integrated into Box offers facial and voice recognition, topic deduction and sentiment analysis. Not only does this increase efficiency, but also use cases. Connecting the Content Box Skills has made content search easier. But Box Graph enhances content, making connections. This content management innovation recognizes relationships in content and among users. With this intelligence, Box Graph makes recommendations in such areas as security, compliance and workflow. At Stake in the AI Revolution Applying AI can revolutionize the way we do things. There are certain tasks that machines can do better at scale. As AI gains traction, Jeetu believes the tech industry bears responsibility for helping transition society. The disruption AI may cause will affect lives and jobs. The industry must consider how to retrain and prepare people for this revolution. Sustaining Innovation How does Box continue to innovate and build its customer base from small businesses to Fortune 500s? Jeetu gives two secrets to Box's success. Keep team's small – 8 to 10 people Scarcity is your friend. Limit resources to focus the team on the task. Interested in learning more about Box and its content management innovation? Go to box.com. If you're in the Bay area August 29 & 30, come to BoxWorks an annual event hosted by Box. Five Minutes to New Ideas Seeing the value in something considered worthless can make all the difference. To make game changing innovations, you have to deconstruct your assumptions about what has value and what doesn't. I did this as an executive at the telecom Telligent in 1997. My discovery allowed us to stand out in a crowd of competitors. Listen to Five Minutes to New Ideas. I hope it inspires you to come up with your own game changer. We're getting ready to head out on travel in the Mobile Studio. We're looking for innovators in non-obvious industries and non-obvious locations. Fin Gourmet Foods in Paducah, Kentucky kicked off this theme. If you have a company or location doing really interesting innovation, drop me a note. We'd love to see if we can come by with the Mobile Studio and do a broadcast. Between now and the end of the year, we'll be focusing east of the Mississippi. After the first of the new year, we'll be focusing west of the Mississippi. If you have comments or suggestions, drop me a note. Read about my experiences in the innovation game at PhilMckinney.com. Find out about my book, Beyond the Obvious, at beyondtheobvious.com. Get a copy through Amazon or wherever you get your books. Pay it forward.

Keywords: innovation; fuel efficiency innovation Competing for Fuel Efficiency Innovation There's been an explosion of innovation competitions in recent years. They highlight the fact that innovation can come from non-obvious sources. These competitions bring together smart people – usually industry outsiders - to tackle a problem. The annual Shell Eco-marathon Americas took place this year in Sonoma, California. In today's show I welcome three members of the Duke Electric Vehicles team from Duke University. They share their experience of competing for fuel efficiency innovation. The Shell Eco-marathon Americas draws teams of high school and college students from North, Central, and South America. The challenge is to create the most fuel-efficient car. The Duke Electric Vehicles team took first place in three categories. On the track, they won awards in hydrogen fuel cell and electric prototypes. Off track, they won in technical innovation. Shomik Verma, Gerry Chen, and Patrick Grady give a glimpse of the competition and their road to victory. The Race is On The team starts in August and works on the car throughout the school year. Amid academic studies and other obligations, students devote evenings and weekends to making the car. They spend the first semester designing. The second semester, they build and test the car. The Duke Electric Vehicle team built a small, oblong 50-pound car in which the driver has to lie flat. The car gets an estimated 12,000 miles per gallon. The secret to their fuel efficiency innovation: a super capacitor in the hydrogen powertrain. Now that the team has tasted victory, they are not stopping. This summer they are working on beating the Guinness World Record for the most fuel-efficient car. Learning Innovation Hands-On Students don't often get to bridge the theoretical to the practical in school. The competition offers the chance to put the classroom theory into practice. At the competition, there was a unique level of cooperation among the teams – from borrowing tools to asking advice. The focus on one problem, fuel efficiency, maximized the potential for innovative solutions. The team members sharpened essential skills of innovation - problem-solving, creativity and collaboration. Lessons Learned Have determination and perseverance. Shomik learned determination and to persevere through unexpected difficulties. In his words, "It was really important for us to rely on team members and rely on the fact that we knew we did good work." Use a methodical, organized approach. Gerry learned the importance of a methodical approach, being organized, and breaking things down into subcomponents. Go back to basic theory for the solutions. This was Patrick's fourth year on the team and second as team president. He learned many lessons through the years working on efficiency vehicles. One of the biggest was how to go back to basic theory. Wishing the Duke Electric Vehicles team the best in breaking the Guinness World Record and beyond.

Five Minutes to New Ideas Could your business benefit from creating a standardized offering of a custom product? Back in 1985, there was no such thing as a standard PC. You owned a specific brand and had access to programs written specifically for that make. Each company was attempting to create lock-in for their third-party software developers. Working for a startup in Silicon Valley, my colleague and I faced a dilemma. What PC should we tailor our typing instruction program to? We came up with a creative solution. Listen to Five Minutes to New Ideas. Hear how going in the opposite direction of the crowd can pay off. We're getting ready to head out on travel in the Mobile Studio. We're looking for innovators in non-obvious industries and non-obvious locations. Fin Gourmet Foods in Paducah, Kentucky kicked off this theme.

Great ideas come and go, but what makes an idea into something bigger? How do you develop your idea into a product that will attract venture capitalists and scale your business? Is the idea sustainable beyond one or two seasons of growth? Can the idea bloom into a niche market and then cross pollinate? Patrick Henry, QuestFusion founder and CEO, shares his framework for cultivating ideation that reaps success. He calls it smart ideation. Steps to Smart Ideation Smart ideation is a five-step process for entrepreneurs and business owners building a growth company. The process focuses on business factors rather than simply developing the product. Patrick's book, Plan, Commit, Win: 90 Days to Creating a Fundable Startup, lays out the framework for smart ideation. The steps are as follows: Customer Problem Solution Test This test answers three questions: Is it a big and important problem for the customer? Is the customer desperate to solve the problem? Is my solution superior to alternatives? Sustainable Competitive Advantage Test Once you answer yes to the questions in #1… How do you sustain business growth over time? What is your innovation roadmap for the next five to ten years? Can your core technology penetrate adjacent product market segments? Can you build layers of competitive advantage? The Intersection Test Facing the challenges to scale your business, you need an intersection of Passion Domain expertise – specialized product and market knowledge A big customer problem A team who can execute The Market Size and Growth Test Applies to businesses funded by venture capital Success or failure hinges on this Must determine growth opportunity in your target market Penetrate a defensible niche, then conquer adjacent markets Have a big long-term vision to scale your business VCs looking for upwards of $100 million in annual revenue The Idea Refinement Test Three ways to refine your idea. Through intimate customer engagement Through a technical and business advisory board that will provide unbiased feedback Through teaching customers willing to provide feedback early on in exchange for some exclusive benefit Qualities of a Successful Ideator Along with the smart ideation process, consider what makes a successful ideator. Patrick sees the successful ideator as one with a unique perspective and perpetual curiosity. They are the tinkerers, gadget users, early adopters who come up with new ways of doing things. These people are disciplined, hardworking, and passionate. Are you ready to scale your business, to bring it to the next level? For more information on smart ideation, go to QuestFusion.com. For a detailed guide to smart ideation, go to smartideation.com. Find Patrick on Twitter: @questfusion, Facebook: @questfusion, and Instagram: @plancommitwin. Five Minutes to New Ideas How do you address customer complaints? Are they an annoyance to dismiss and be done with? Don't make the mistake major companies have made minimizing or ignoring complaints. It may come back to haunt you. Be proactive in addressing customer issues. Listen to this week's Five Minutes to New Ideas for insight on this important topic. I'm getting ready to head out in the Mobile Studio in search of interesting innovators. I'll be east of the Mississippi this Fall and west of the Mississippi the first of 2019. If you know somebody who would be a great guest on the show, drop me a note at killerinnovations.com.

At the Innovation Boot Camp, I had a chance to talk with Kym McNicholas. We've both been traveling. Kym's made stops in Europe and Asia to promote medical innovations. I've driven 12,000 miles in four months in the Mobile Studio. On the road, we've found innovation in non-obvious locations. Here's a recap of what we've been tracking in the innovation arena. A New Market of Employees Kym notes, "Real innovation is happening in different parts of the country." I found this in Paducah, Kentucky. FIn Gourmet Foods is innovating on several levels. This company has created a unique solution to an invasive species problem. Their processing method renders Asian Carp a hot menu item in tony New York restaurants. They also employ felons on parole. Through employment, they help these people readjust to independent living. On our diverging travels, one stop Kym and I had in common was South by Southwest (SXSW) in Austin, TX. I hosted a talk on neurodiversity hiring. Like FIn Gourmet Foods hiring approach, I encourage companies to discover a new market for employees. Working with Hacking Autism I'm exploring ways to bridge the work gap for people with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Companies interested in sparking innovation should consider a neurodiversity hiring program. Many autistic adults are highly intelligent, capable people. They can offer a fresh and different perspective to a team. By establishing this hiring program, companies will gain an edge. At CableLabs, the people in our program are having phenomenal impacts on our business. An Invitation to Create At SXSW, Kym's focus was on electric vertical take-off and landing vehicles (VTOLs). Kym joined a discussion with partners Embraer and Uber. There are challenges and potential for VTOLs in urban settings. Embraer and Uber invited the innovation community to get involved. The drive is to start testing by 2020 and market by 2024. Through empowering the community to create with them, Uber and Embraer hope to achieve this goal. Other companies may create in parallel. But Uber realizes the need for an ecosystem. Tell the Story One of the challenges in launching a "flying car" is navigating the regulatory system. VTOL creators need to ensure federal, state and local regulations accommodate use in urban environments. As with many innovations that face this issue, innovators need to convey the story. It's not the pitch laden with tech speak. It's not something that sounds good but doesn't hold water. The innovation story has to be genuine, compelling and convincing. It has to reach the audience. The story should make them understand what you're doing, see the value in it, and realize why it's important. Five Minutes to New Ideas Magazine publishers are in a predicament. With free content available on the internet, magazine publishers must make their content worth paying for. One creative way to keep customers engaged with the product is to tap into the backlog of content. Those willing to experiment and try repurposing will discover new areas of growth in their business. Could you provide components separately or in unique combinations to serve new customers? Listen to Five Minutes to New Ideas to learn more. If you have comments or suggestions, drop me a note.

Here we are Episode 50! It is so cool that you guys have been with us, letting us talk about absolutely nothing, sometimes interview, and most times yell at you guys. We have been really busy this year so far. We've driven all over the southeast in search of a Mobile Studio, we've flown up to Milwaukee and met a lot of you guys there, we've been to Tampa and hung out with the "crazy FL kids". It has just been really humbling to say the least. This week we took it on the road again. BigScott and I headed south to Florida to pick up the BAGO. We picked up Downtown Dan along the way to keep us company, take some videos, and drive the chase vehicle so we both could ride in the new Rig! Thanks again everyone who has bought shirts, got on patron, and listens to the show. You guys all kick ass.

In this episode, I talk about my podcast being available on the Stitcher app, so you can have the show on the go. Please give a thumbs up to increase my ranking and visibility. Thanks for doing that. It's another 45 year anniversary. This time it's "Beggar's Banquet". One time I was driving in Seattle in my old red pickup and a song came on the radio. I'd heard the Stones all my life, but just the singles. The Chevy started steering itself until I ended up at a CD store. The song was "You Can't Always Get What You Want", and I'd never listened to it closely. It made a big impression on me and started me on a journey. I used to like a lot of thrash bands, then grunge. I like melodic music, but the Stones were off my radar. The journey was expensive, because I had to buy thirty albums. Same with Bowie. I was buying a CD almost every day and got obsessed with them and Bowie. "Beggar's Banquet" was probably the second album of theirs I got. It is very acoustic. The record cover is simple, white with script writing and said "RSVP". It was like a formal invitation to a nice dinner. The real album cover they wanted to use was refused by the record company but they re-released it with that in 2003 or so. It's a horrible bathroom like in "Trainspotting" and they use graffiti to great effect. It's a sepia toned picture with dirty porcelain. It looks like the Rolling Stones name is written in lipstick. It also says, "God rolls his own". There's an ankh and a peace sign and someone has taco thighs. There's a weird not to Bob Dylan. Inside joke, probably. Kilroy was here, and so was a naked woman. The back cover has the crediting of the musicians and the song titles, randomly written. Somewhere it says, "Where is Spanish Tony?" who was their drug dealer. It was a transitional album, because the previous album was the strange answer to "Sgt. Pepper's" called "Their Satanic Majesties Request". They were messed up on drugs bigtime. "Beggar's" was a return to their roots, acoustic blues. "Sympathy for the Devil" is the first song, but doesn't fit with the rest, since "Sympathy" is an electric rocker. Brian Jones had puffy eyes and a bowl haircut. He was always on drugs and fighting women. He couldn't play much because he was so messed up, but he would show up at the studio and want to play. Mick and Keith were pushing him out. Brian would derail their productivity in the studio because he didn't know the songs. So they kicked him out, which is real hard to do, trust me. Brian Jones drowned in his swimming pool about a month later. About that time, Keef was making friends with Gram Parsons, who died tragically like many others around the Stones. He influenced Keef's country sound. Gram was from Georgia, Bakersfield, and Nashville. He showed Keef how to tune his guitar to an open tuning, which I don't want to explain. It became Keith's signature, and it's the reason I never learned how to play Stones songs because I didn't want to retune all the time. Crazy, since I have a Stones tattoo. Mick was getting more comfortable as a singer and he sounds like a Chicago blues man. He doesn't get the credit he deserves. The Stones had a mobile studio built in '68. Mick lived in a country house called "Stargroves". They were tired of being in the studio and wanted to record at their houses, so they made a mobile control unit. That studio recorded dozens of seminal albums by Lou Reed, Marley, Mac, Badco, Zep, etc., etc. They recorded Zep at Headley Grange and Stargroves. They drove the studio around on a flatbed. On the "Physical Graffiti" album, there's a song called "Black Country Woman" and Eddie Kramer was the engineer. A plane flew over and Robert Plant told him to leave it on the recording. The Stones were from the street, working class, and they never forgot that. At the height of their fame, Keef had rotten teef. I hope you liked this episode! My website is www.PaperbackRocker.com.
