With the emergence of AI-powered no-code platforms, we can see solopreneurs becoming more common. So what can we take away from it? 𝗘𝗺𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗡𝗼-𝗖𝗼𝗱𝗲 𝗧𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗥𝗮𝗽𝗶𝗱 𝗜𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 No-code platforms are game-changers. They’ve been around for a while already, but with the rise of AI we’re seeing more and more pop-up. Some inspiring new examples: ➡ 𝗞𝗮𝗷𝗮𝗯𝗶: Easily draft an app, gather user feedback, and refine it iteratively. ➡ 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆: Build immersive web experiences like metaverses without the steep learning curve. ➡ 𝗝𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗼: Create engaging games, measure user interactions, and evolve your game based on real-time feedback. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘂𝗿 𝗘𝗱𝗴𝗲:  Solopreneurs and creators have always led the way in digital innovation. But now, rather than hiring or partnering with expensive developers to build a few iterations of the same concept, they can generate multiple different concepts at an even quicker pace. Anyone can now develop apps, websites, and digital solutions without writing a single line of code. The benefits are clear: accessibility, cost efficiency, and an ability to experiment with diverging ideas. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿’𝘀 𝗘𝗱𝗴𝗲: These platforms empower you to move from concept to prototype quickly and efficiently, speeding up your path to market and enhancing your innovation process. Whether you’re a solopreneur a corporate innovator, or anything in between, these tools can be a powerful addition to your process: ➡ 𝗗𝗿𝗮𝗳𝘁 𝗤𝘂𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗹𝘆: Use these platforms to sketch out basic versions of your projects. Reduce the time spent on wireframes, prototypes, and MVPs, and get buy-in in earlier phases of your project. ➡ 𝗗𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗲: Create different apps or different versions of your app without the need for more budget, allowing you to test (parts of) your value proposition in different ways. ➡ 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Building fully usable models in early stage experiments allow you to capture real behaviors. This rich behavioral data can be used to more strongly (in)validate your assumptions early on. What no-code platforms are you using? Let’s discuss it in the comments! 💬 #Innovation #NoCode #AI #Solopreneur #Productivity #Agile

As innovators, there are 2 key areas we must master when it comes to AI. We must learn to effectively integrate AI in our processes, and responsibly build it into our products. But to do so, we must start now. 𝗔𝗜 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 ➡ Boost efficiency ➡ Enhance creativity ➡Increase your effectiveness 🔍 How to Get Started ▶ Understand AI Capabilities: Explore AI’s potential in automating tasks, analyzing data, and generating ideas. ▶ Experiment and Test: Don’t just theorize, do. Identify in which workflows AI can add value, and test different tools and methods. 𝗔𝗜 𝗶𝗻 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 Dream big, but start small. AI can elevate your offerings, but it’s crucial to approach this systematically. 🔍 How to Get Started ▶ Envision the Perfect AI Companion: Think about how AI can enhance your product. Could it provide personalized recommendations, automate customer support, or predict user needs? ▶Prototype and Test: Begin with existing (AI) tools or execute the work yourself in the background. Test these features with real users to gather feedback and iterate. ▶Measure and Scale: Assess the relevancy and impact of the proposed AI integrations. Scale the ones that show the most promise. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗵 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱: Let’s make sure that we understand the power of these algorithms and the responsibility that they bring with them. We are the ones who design the products and services they are used in, so let’s work together to make sure that we do this responsibly. It’s time we all start doing, building, and sharing. Let's exchange insights and ideas so that we can all remain future proof together. Let us know in the comments what insights you've already found! 💬 #AI #Innovation #Workflows

Because it’s simple: if you don’t adapt to the changing needs of the world and your markets, then the world will adapt to no longer need you. Sustainability is no longer a dream, hype, or some vague selling point included in a proposition. It’s become a paradigm that shapes everything from the way we develop products and services, to the strategies that guide our organizations.

It means validating what the market (and the world) needs, identifying your capabilities, and developing the innovative ideas that bring these two together. As long as your heart and wallet are in the right place, you shouldn’t have a problem making impact. But the first step is to integrate sustainability in your strategic objectives. This way, your incentives are aligned with your goals, and your innovations can be judged based on their broader impact. Let’s stop expecting sustainability to impact strategy, and start ensuring that it does. It’s up to us to make sure that we’re not led by transitions such as these, but that we take the lead in shaping the future of our industries. Let’s not be a part of the 97% who expect change, but the few who lead transitions. #Strategy #Innovation #ESG #Inspiration

We sat down with 20 of the leading innovators in the Netherlands to discuss AI. And what a day it was. We believe that it’s a part of our mission to provide innovators with the tools and knowledge they need to create a lasting impact. AI is one of the most powerful tools that they can use to increase the speed and quality of their work, so we’re very excited to finally share more about what we’ve learned so far. Last Tuesday, our Masters of Innovation: AI with Bit took place at the Moonshot Studios in Amsterdam. With attendees ranging from Politie Nederland, to Soa Aids Nederland, to Baas BV, we covered a variety of different AI challenges and opportunities. An insightful presentation by Marco van der Werf took the innovators through a deep-dive into AI and it’s use cases for innovation. We followed this up with a fireside chat with Marco and Joep, in which attendees could ask questions and discuss their ideas with the experts. But some of the greatest ideas of this session came out of the breakout rooms. They provided the innovators the opportunity to share their specific AI challenges, and discuss solutions and opportunities amongst each other. It led to a whole tapestry of innovative tools, methods, and prompting tricks that also gave us a lot of new ideas! We’re also in the process of exploring how we can better help you understand AI and it’s use cases for product development and innovation. We could however really use your help to build the right solution. It’d be great if we could take 15 minutes of your time to ask a few questions, and we’d love to share the AI kit we have in development in return. We want to thank Marco for his amazing presentation and guidance during the breakout rooms, and we want to thank all of the participants for taking the time to share their challenges and contribute their ideas. We hope to see you soon again! #Event #AI #Innovation #Community

Getting buy in for projects with real impact is often very hard. But if you don’t like the rules, then flip the table. As we mentioned last week, CFOs are now perfectly positioned to be the key drivers of sustainable change. Rather than only reporting on financial metrics, they must now also start including metrics that measure an organization’s effect on the climate. But these CSR metrics do more than just track performance; they drive real change. By quantifying metrics like carbon footprint and waste, companies are pushed to innovate and to use their resources more efficiently. This in turn can lead to cost savings, an improved image, and even entirely new revenue streams. Take DSM as an example: ➡ DSM has integrated sustainability metrics in their financial reports since 2017. ➡ They introduced an internal carbon price of €50 per tonne to drive sustainability-driven decision-making. ➡ They reduced financing costs by securing a loan with interest rates tied to their greenhouse gas reductions. ➡ DSM ranks in the top 1% of companies for their ESG score, which boosts their image among investors, employees, and consumers. ➡ They help customers reduce emissions and encourage competitors to adopt sustainable practices, thus positioning themselves as the driver of systemic change. We can’t improve what we can’t track. So let’s all step beyond simply measuring what the planet and people are doing for us, and start reporting on what we’re doing for them. Let us know in the comments if your organization has any innovative ways to track impact, or any effective strategies to align the organization on these goals! 💬 #Innovation #CSR #Sustainability #ESG

Don’t get left behind. Join us in exploring the power of AI for innovation at the next Masters of Innovation. AI is still in a phase where organizations are not sure if they should be using it yet. And even if they are, most often they have no idea on how to actually integrate it in their day-to-day tasks. They see it’s potential for creating competitive advantages, but are too hesitant for their employees to become experienced with it. “𝑌𝑜𝑢 𝑚𝑎𝑦 𝑎𝑙𝑠𝑜 𝑛𝑒𝑒𝑑 𝑡𝑜 𝑟𝑒𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑔𝑖𝑛𝑒 ℎ𝑜𝑤 𝑦𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑏𝑢𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑒𝑠𝑠 𝑤𝑖𝑙𝑙 𝑟𝑢𝑛 𝑤ℎ𝑒𝑛 𝐺𝑒𝑛𝐴𝐼 ℎ𝑎𝑠 𝑚𝑎𝑑𝑒 𝑘𝑛𝑜𝑤𝑙𝑒𝑑𝑔𝑒 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑘𝑒𝑟𝑠 30% 𝑡𝑜 40% 𝑚𝑜𝑟𝑒 𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑑𝑢𝑐𝑡𝑖𝑣𝑒.” - 𝗣𝗪𝗖 So let’s come together as innovators and leaders to figure out how AI can fit into our professional lives. We must share our methods and experiences, and help each other to grow if we want to stay competitive in the global market. With this in mind, we want to invite you to our Masters of Innovation: AI with Bit. This edition will be taking place in the Moonshot Studios in Amsterdam. Together with Marco van der Werf, Leonard Bukenya, and Joep Serrarens, we’ll be doing a deep dive into the power of AI for innovation. As we explore tools, methods and best practices. You will walk away with fresh ideas and new connections that will help you accelerate your impact. Let’s turn uncertainty into confidence and supercharge your innovation.

Put on your running shoes, and let’s talk design sprint. During a design sprint you go through an intensive process to turn research insights into the first viable propositions. It means moving fast to get something into the market, so you can quickly start learning from the actual behavior of customers. Last week we did a 5 day design sprint together with a client. For this sprint, we were following an approach we designed ourselves. Rather than relying on the standard model that Jake Knapp pioneered, we prefer to tailor our design sprints to the specific project that we’re doing. It’s always important to rely on the theories and approaches that are taught in books, but the real trick lies in being able to combine and adapt these approaches to fit unique situations. But turning theory into knowledge requires practice, and to practice you have to start doing. Just like a runner has to build up stamina, you have to test your limits and try new things to become good at it. Your trusted sneakers might be good for walks, but you’re gonna have to find new running shoes if you want sprint. Share in what ways you adapt your sprints down below! #Design #Sprint #Innovation
