Co:tunity
Co-creation app to capture inspiration and build ideas
Co:tunity is a co-creation app made by Kairos Future that connects team members in real-time to capture inspiration and build ideas.
A Co:tunity user can be engaged in a variety of challenges as a co:spotter, co:futurist, co:ideator, or co:inventor to co-create actionable insights and sparkling solutions. Co:tunity is a platform where users can help companies that are struggling with challenges such as rethinking communication, empowering their brand, developing new products, cutting costs, or figuring out how to attract more customers.
Sharing Spottings or Ideations is easier than posting updates on social networks. Co:tunity users are guided by co:owners of challenges and are able to follow and learn from innovation experts.
