Identifying opportunities for service innovation in the rapidly changing and complex business environments requires easy-to-use tools. This workshop introduces and provides a possibility to test a new tool kit for accelerating service innovation and supporting cocreation activities.
The CoCo Tool Kit is a collection of five tools: 1) CoCo Interview; 2) CoCo Selfassessment; 3) CoCo Continuum; 4) CoCo Tree; and 5) CoCo Cosmos. The first four tools analyze and communicate a company’s current business approach. The most powerful tool is the CoCo Cosmos which is an interactive service design game. The game uses cards as a visual method for ideating and visualizing holistic service contexts. Most importantly; the game helps companies focus on customers’ contexts and build their value propositions to correspond with customers’ needs. In November 2013; the CoCo Tool Kit was nominated as the winner of one of the main categories (“Capacity Building”) in the EU Female Inventors and Innovators competition.
