The InnovationSpace program at Arizona State University provides senior-level students with a unique opportunity to complete a real-world product-development project. Using the Integrated Innovation model, teams of top undergraduate students from business, engineering, industrial design, sustainability and visual communication design spend two semesters researching, developing and refining product concepts. Our work includes
- exploring user, societal and environmental needs;
- analyzing market trends and consumer demand; and,
- investigating new technologies.
All final products are accompanied by proof-of-concept and appearance models as well as detailed Innovation Proposals. These proposals summarize user research; present a product concept; provide engineering specifications; outline a product-communication strategy; and chart a comprehensive business plan
