Collaborative Innovation Networks



OVERVIEW: Every disruptive innovation is not the result of a lone inventor, but of a small group of likeminded individuals, working together in close collaboration to get their cool idea off the ground. They are leveraging the concept of swarm creativity, where this small team - the Collaborative Innovation Network (COIN) - empowered by the collaborative technologies of the Internet and social media, turns their creative labor of love into a product that changes the way how we think, work, or spend our day.

This talk describes a series of ongoing projects at the MIT Center for Collective Intelligence with the goal of analyzing the new idea creation process through tracking human interaction patterns on three levels:

On the global level, macro- and microeconomic indicators such as the valuation of companies and consumer indices, or election outcomes, are predicted based on social media analysis on Twitter, Blogs, and Wikipedia. On the organizational level, productivity and creativity of companies and teams is measured through extracting 'honest signals' from communication archives such as company e-mail. On the individual level, individual and team creativity is analyzed through face-to-face interaction with sociometric badges and personal e-mail logs.

The talk introduces the concept of coolhunting, finding new trends by finding the trendsetters, and coolfarming, helping the trendsetters getting their idea over the tipping point. The talk also presents the concept of 'Virtual Mirroring', increasing individual and team creativity by analyzing and optimizing five inter-personal interaction variables of honest communication: 'strong leadership', 'rotating leaders', 'balanced contribution', 'fast response', and 'honest sentiment.'
