NeedInn – Need Centered Product Innovation within E-health | 2005-2007

Needfinding process in NeedInn (swedish)

PROJECT SUMMARY

Needfinding and innovation are the keywords of NeedInn.

The goal for NeedInn is to create a method, a working process, which contributes to a need centered product development process within e-health. To make this happen we need to develop a way to find the needs and to make them more clearly for users and solution providers.
