Serve-MIND

Serve MIND builds on ANTO and MIND Tekes projects that have built an innovation platform in Finland between 2007-2010. The platform aims at generating industry-changing and convention-challenging innovations, strategic innovations. In Serve MIND the MIND platform is utilised by Aalto University researchers, consultants and customer companies in order to co-create industry convention-challenging service innovations. The platform is also used for studying the birth mechanisms of these innovations and the barriers for executing them.

The project lasts for two years and the budget is around 550 000 euro. During the project there will be research exchange between ESADE Barcelona and TU Delft. Apart from Tekes the project is funded by UPM Kymmene, NCC, The Service Foundation for People with an Intellectual Disability, Seedi and Core Finland.
