Creativity is the process of creating new ideas. Innovation is the process of turning those ideas into a reality. But where do those ideas come from? At newicon we believe you don’t need good ideas, you need to uncover problems worth solving. Then the ideas flow. Newicon’s innovation toolkit gives you the process to make sure the solutions you create actually benefit your business and solve real problems that have an impact.
Brains are the most complicated structures in the known universe. All technology pales in comparision to the complexity of your users, colleagues or stake holders minds! Understand your users, learn techniques to empathise, understand key mindsets and user adoption patterns. A digital product is only as successful as its user engagement whether it is a commercial or an internal product. Ensuring all users benefit from a system makes sure it will be a success. Even when designing closed and automated systems - ensuring the interfaces are useable and maintanable for the humans when they come will ensure long term success.
To make fast progress you need to get visual and start creating prototypes. We provide an easy to follow toolkit that takes the uncertainty and fear of failure out of innovation. A combination of workbooks, propt cards, exercises, worksheets, canvas boards and post-it notes (innovation always needs post-it notes, aparently) to make sure your team are able to create real solutions and make progress quickly. With the innovation toolkit you always know what to do, how to do it and what to do next.
Consider how hard it is validating tests is in pharmaceutical industries where they test the real physical action of drugs, people in the system have the ability to completely corrupt the data. So how on earth do you draw any valid conclusions in artificial user tests? Using a practical mix of empathy, interviews, intuition, value definition, and reviews that's how.
Each workshop is packed with exercises, worksheets, canvases, propt cards and facilitator prompts. All packaged into an easy to follow process with simple and easy to understand instructions. Of course, an experienced facilitator can speed this along even more. We're constantly working on improving the details of the innovation kit so you can get the most out of it.

Back in 2018, we had a meeting at Newicon that would go on to define the next 2 years of work for the design team. We had originally set out to write a blog post about innovation, which would be a practical guide on how to innovate from scratch and build new ideas, but after a failed first attempt we sat back down and had a big discussion about it. We realised we had all of the experience and know-how to sha...
