Students will identify trends in a jointly defined search field and then search for lead users and experts in the specified area. The seminar concludes with a Lead User workshop where innovative product concepts are developed for the project partner. The theoretical foundation is the Lead User method, developed by Eric von Hippel at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
