Nir-vana Project STUDY
The report analyses the characteristics of existing on-line collaboration platforms and points out the main challenges to be faced. Based on this, it not only recommends technical features of the future on-line collaboration platform to be implemented by NIR-VANA, but also recognise cultural aspects that need to be bridged in SMEs when working with external relations and collaborative innovation.
TRUST, the key point! Establishing trust of users and engaging them in the collaboration processes is very important as well as explaining or suggesting different kind of collaborations and related characteristics (e.g. specific flexible and dynamic workflows) that will facilitate the monitoring of collaborations, particularly for the innovation advisers. The protection of critical knowhow and IP management is also a crucial point in order to establish the trust. The report also suggests an integration of several existing networking tools and it confirms the necessity to produce a lean, simple, visual and clear platform SMEs’ desired/optimal features for the NIR-VANA platform.
