Generate Solutions

We brainstorm about technological solutions on a human scale. In collaboration with everyone who cares about Ghent.

Children are the most creative thinkers. During Young Inventors in Motion, primary school classes in Ghent come up with crazy ideas, which they craft into life-size inventions. During a Co-creation session, students together with experts brainstorm about new, out-of-the box solutions.

Creatiebudget

Heb je zelf een idee voor een oplossing rond de uitdaging waar Comon aan werkt? Ontvang 250 euro als duwtje in de rug om je idee te realiseren. Met het creatiebudget bieden we 40 mensen €250 aan die een innovatief idee hebben en dat willen uitwerken.

Maakmarathon

Teams of students from all kinds of disciplines continue to work on this during the Make-a-Ton. Under the watchful eye of experts, they delve into the world of design thinking, fast prototyping and pitching, to create testable prototypes of innovative solutions.

Wenselijkheidsdebat

During a Desirability Debate we examine the solutions: will they really work, are they user-friendly, can everyone use them? At the end of the ride we put all solution ideas in the spotlight in a Solutions Expo in De Krook.
