Idea Lab
The «Idea Lab» is a methodologically relatively open instrument in which specialists from DDPS develop solutions together with the problem owner, and if necessary, with the involvement of third parties. This means that the activities of this innovation space can be performed both openly with partners from industry and academia as well as on a closed basis, in other words, only internally. The decision on whether the process is to be performed on an open or closed basis depends on the available internal competence, the confidentiality and the need. The activities can, for example, include hackathons, makeathons and ideation labs. The focus here is on solutions with a Solution Readiness Level between 3 (concept) and 7 (minimum viable solution).
