symposium

The inaugural coCreationcamp #01 is taking place on Nov. 20 and 21 in Brussels. The Symposium Day on Nov. 21 will allow to look at dimensions of co-creation. The day before, on November 20, we will be exploring specific themes in workshops.

Speakers, ranging from a wide variety of areas, will share their points of view about co-creation, collaboration, open innovation, crowd sourcing, …

coCreationcamp is an enabling infrastructure for the generation of ideas and hence is playing a catalyst role. coCreation looks at innovation mechanisms designing and producing “with” people, and not only “for” people.

Each slot (P for People, for Public, for Private, for Platform) will allow speakers to share different positions and interact with participants. Join the conversations ! The speakers are listed here and will take part actively during the day, interacting with others point of view, bringing critical discourse, reframing issues and approaches.

Experiential Knowledge
Through a series of coCreationcamp(s), we explore the design of knowledge exchange to expand innovation opportunities. Different forms and formats are shaped: join the conversation and let's intersect and expand knowledge scapes. We are working at Helsinki coCreationcamp in May 2012, Paris D-Days June 2012, Copenhagen June 2012, Torino Nov. 2012 and coCreationcamp Creative Wallonia.
Let’s co-create
After Helsinki coCreationcamp on 22-23 May 2012, Madrid on May 28th, Paris on June 1st, and Copenhagen coCreationcamp on June 18-19th 2012, we were in London end June (co-creation & food design) and in Torino on Nov. 9 (about autoproduction, in connection with Operae). The 2012 series is ending with coCreationcamp Creative Wallonia.

Belgium is Design, in Milano at the Triennale, has selected coCreationcamp for the exhibition during the Milano Design Week, 17-22 April 2012 Perspectives
