National Needs Network

The National Needs Network

Share your innovation needs | Connect to new ideas, technologies and partnerships | Collaborate

Open up.  Leverage the power of open innovation by sharing your needs amongst peers or a wider community.  The National Needs Network makes it easier to share your company's burning platforms and start innovating with others.  

AggregateEntrepreneurs  have an impossible task: Finding out what you need.  There are hundreds of open innovation, crowdsourcing and co-creation resources now available and from the entrepreneur's perspective it is a full-time job keeping up to date. Enterprises spend a lot of money with such platforms with few guarantees of success.  The National Needs Network gives the outside world an easy shop window to browse and one key channel to communicate.  

Transfer. There are few high profile productive collaborations between industry sectors, yet the prizes are large.  The National Needs Network gives professional innovators from diverse industries the chance to find the lateral solutions they need for discontinuous innovation. 

Log in to post your needs here, offer help to others and then collaborate on the opportunities that emerge.  Your needs will be seen by other Union members, a larger peer group or a wider audience. You decide.
