“The best way to have a good idea is to have lots of ideas”

How many times have you been in a company-wide brainstorming session and wondered what would happen to all of those great ideas? 

Have you ever been the poor soul who was in charge of documenting the ideas and sharing them with the group? 

How many times did those ideas accumulate in the form of dusty post-it notes that just sat around only to end up in a recycling bin? 

"The best way to have a good idea is to have LOTS of ideas" - Linus Pauling

Ever wonder what those ideas could have accomplished if given the chance?

We are delighted to launch this Innovative Brainstorms tool – an enterprise application designed to give ideas a place to live and breathe and make complex problem solving simple. This tool has been hard at work helping some of today’s leading innovators deploy Brainstorms to solve challenges big and small. And today, some of the world’s brightest minds are sharing ideas on this platform – including Arup, Daimler, BP, Intel, TEDx and the innovative collaboration between NASA, USAID, Department of State, and NIKE called LAUNCH.

One of the key insights is that teams who openly share ideas and thinking are more likely to come up with well-rounded solutions to their biggest challenges. This Brainstorming tool enables teams to do just that – openly share ideas. Today, teams are using Brainstorms as fuel for their next marketing campaign, to inspire new products and services, or to discover the next big thing.

Here are 3 ways you can kick off a brainstorm to tackle your biggest challenges:
 

• Internal brainstorms: Use Brainstorms to break down geographic and business unit silos by getting everyone working together on a specific challenge.

• Partner brainstorms: Create a virtual brainstorm with key partners, distributors, industry experts and thought leaders who share your desire to solve a specific problem.

• Public brainstorms: If you really want to solve a problem, don’t just get insights from your team and partners. Engage your customers, event attendees or even the public at large.

We believe in the power of ideas to fundamentally change the way the world does business. The right approach can help break down the barriers that keep your best ideas locked in silos and help you easily engage across teams, partners and customers. But the best ideas only thrive if they’re brought to life through real-time collaboration and idea sharing.

So what are you waiting for?

Introducing Opal Brainstorms.

It all starts with an idea
 
Throughout history we’ve seen the greatest innovations develop from one, often crazy, idea. Once upon a time the idea of a ‘flying machine’ was out of this world, and now look at the aviation industry!

We believe there is an ideas person in everyone but with our hectic schedules our ideas often fail to see the light of day. Opal Brainstorms was created to give all these unrealised ideas a place to get discovered and utilised to effect positive change - whether that be creating the next big product or solving a global issue.

Opal Brainstorms enables you to tap into the collective insight of your employees, partners, peers and customers and unlock a massive amount of information - all the stuff you never knew you never knew! Call in diverse perspectives to build better products, solve tougher challenges, stimulate more generative conversations and boost innovation.

Our fun and intuitive ideas platform is secured by SSL-encryption with cloud-based convenience and accessibility enabling you to collaborate and innovate in a secure environment on a variety of devices across the globe.  

How does it work?

Using Opal Brainstorms you can run Sprints. Sprints are time-based, virtual brainstorms. Create a brainstorm around a theme or to solve a challenge. Break the challenge down into a series of questions and then invite in your participants to contribute their brilliant ideas then watch as all your ideas grow and evolve.

Opal Brainstorms lets you synthesise your collected ideas, categorising them to help you discover patterns and themes, which can then be exported, shared and printed.

During and post Sprint, we’ll provide you with metrics, tracking progress against agreed goals helping you ensure your Brainstorm is a success.

Three ways to use Sprints:
 
1. Internal Company Sprints:
Breakdown geographic and business unit silos and get everyone working together on a project or business issue.

Use case: BP use Company Sprints to work together on new ideas for the future of carbon energy and Arup has 11,000 brains working on their project inception ideas.

2. Collaborative Sprints:
Collaborate with your business partners, suppliers, distributors, industry experts and thought leaders.

Use case: Opal Brainstorms has been used as the glue in a collaborative project called LAUNCH, an initiative between NASA, USAID, Nike and the US Department of State to work through systems innovation problems.

3. Public Sprints:
Engage with the public at events or online. Amplify the impact of your next conference by enlisting attendees to share their ideas or gather feedback from your customers.

Use case: TEDxAustin and TED@Intel have used Public Sprint to generate hundreds of ideas with both live and online audiences.
