The Gosta glasses - born out of fear, compassion and imagination

Sofia Svanteson, the founder & chairman of design agency Ocean Observations will tell the story of how a horrible bike ride down the devious roads in the Italian alps led to a fruitful teamwork around first-hand emotions, empathy for consumers of sport products and the desire to create a new, improved and meaningful service.

Sofia is an award winning Swedish entrepreneur, designer and innovator who has been called a ”super hot potato” by the business magazine Dagens Industri. When Sofia and her class from the Royal Institute of Technology visited Tokyo in 1999, she was ”hit” with an insight. – The future was spelled ”mobile services and content”. And in 2001 she was ready to kick-start Ocean Observations with their first client being South Korean Samsung.

Today, Ocean has worked with companies such as Vodafone, Nokia, Skype, Electrolux, Ericsson and more recently, the Japanese mega-operator KDDI.

Their focus is on “meaningful interactions between brands and consumers”. They re-design mobile services to improve the experience but it’s about a lot more, for example kitchen equipment UIs, control systems for nuclear power plants and in-car information and navigation.

Modern Technologies and Active Lifestyle: Modern society is facing serious problems due to physical inactivity and sedentary lifestyle. Exercise has a strong preventive and therapeutic action, in particular for certain categories of citizens : overweight, obese, affected by metabolic syndrome, hyper tensed, depressed, etc. If well prescribed and administered, structured physical exercise has a proven preventive and therapeutic activity on NCDs as well. Exercise is a real therapeutic and preventive agent and it should be regulated and administered like any pharmaceutical treatment. However, to be effective….it should be done! How can modern technologies support the adoption of an healthy lifestyle?

Christopher-Robin Eklund

“The day finally came when I in my hands got a "smart phone", you know one of those stupid things solving problems that doesn't really exist. But as it happened I kept it in my hands for the exact amount of time needed to to get me curious of what was so amazing about this device, I got curious and wanted to understand more…

This was autumn 2009, since that day I have, one way or another, spent every day with thoughts of usage and solutions of mobile devices. First as Creative at apegroup and now as in charge of the mobile application program at Hyperisland.”

About Open Innovation

Open Innovation is a way to create new innovation processes where producers and consumers are close together in the development of products and services. There are a variety of phenomena in the area carried out around the world aimed at supporting and facilitating this collaboration. For many new ideas this is today a theory that is taken for granted. But it wasn’t always that way.

Crowdfunding is a concept in the field of Open Innovation where funding is provided from many small often unknown and private sources. With the help of web sites and interactive presentations, anyone can read and get shown lots of project ideas, about everything, and then invest or develop. There is right now a booming interest in the possibilities for this kind of funding.

According to the newly released Crowdfunding Industry Report there are today more than 452 crowdfunding platforms worldwide. The report states that the platforms raised almost $1.5 billion and successfully funded more than one million campaigns in 2011. North America was the largest market for fundraising at $837 million.

When new innovation processes can be identified it also requires renewed ways to finance this work. To develop new instruments that fit into this process is an important part of quality assurance for project financiers as the Internet Fund. Project financiers have with today's Internet services an opportunity to reach new stakeholders, and support the meeting between producers and consumers. Financiers are driven to take part of the best ideas and fund the best projects.

According to Wikipedia: “Crowdfunding describes the collective cooperation, attention and trust by people who network and pool their money and other resources together, usually via the Internet, to support efforts initiated by other people or organizations. Crowdfunding occurs for any variety of purposes, from disaster relief to citizen journalism to artists seeking support from fans, to political campaigns, to funding a startup company, movie or small business or creating free software.”

Workshop

Open data - Stockholm County Council

Currently, Stockholm County Council is running a project to improve the business- and innovation environment in the healthcare sector.

An important task within the project concerns open data. A central question is what changes are needed if the County Council is to undertake work on making data available?

As a first step, Stockholm county council will make data concerning General Practician receptions (Husläkarmottagningar) available on Healthhackday. For example, the data includes addresses, opening hours, results from patient questionnaires, and visits performed there. To some extent, this information is already available today through information at Vårdguiden.se (the Stockholm Health Care Guide).

During Healthhackday the information will be made available in a new way through raw data files. The hope is that programmers and entrepreneurs will develop something good from this, creating incentives and serve as a good example in the future, making more public data available.

Workshop

Health Graph Hacking 101

The "Health Graph Hacking 101" workshop provides a crash course on developing using the Health Graph API and platform.

We discuss how to start using the Health Graph, provide an introduction to its OAuth based authorization model and RESTful API, and illustrate user flow through the Health Graph platform and partner applications.

We will also feature third party libraries to make your Health Graph based development more efficient and examine test data creation and related tools.

A preview of the material we will cover in this workshop is available from the links and presentation at: http://blog.healthgraph.com/about/
