Managing a wide-ranging dialogue can be a real challenge. Take, for example, the experience of Robert Neuhard, Executive Director at UCSD, who engaged over 10,000 people in a campus strategic planning process. Once the planning was complete, however, the question of how to keep the dialogue going became an issue. The ideas generated through the planning process were valuable, but how to manage them and turn them into actionable programs was unclear.
This is where Hype Innovation comes into play. HYPE is a company that provides a platform for managing innovation campaigns. Robert was impressed with the level of support they received from Hype. Beyond simply providing a platform for managing campaigns, Hype provided ideas and best practices from its extensive network of clients and partners. This kind of knowledge-sharing was invaluable and something they would not have had access to otherwise.
The flexibility of the Hype platform was another key feature that UCSD appreciated. There was no limit to the range of campaigns that could be launched, from reducing administrative burdens to advancing the next generation of research. Hype's platform made it easy to try new things and experiment with different approaches.
The success of a campaign was measured not by the number of ideas generated but by the quality of the ideas and the degree of interaction they received from participants. Hype's platform was designed to encourage dialogue and collaboration.
