Weeknote 7

27 Januar - 2012Magnus0
Our projects have moved along nicely this week, as have our new biz meetings, writings and calls, but in general this week has been a week of research.

Kim, Martin and myself have been working on "the Book" project. Doing interviews, desktop research and hosting a very interesting insight workshop with our esteemed client's management and chairman. It was our first workshop in the office and it worked out fine, although I believe we need to...

weeknote 5

13 Januar - 2012Magnus0
Looking through our calendars, to-do list, scrum- and whiteboards for signs of what we spend the last week on, it seems we are getting a lot of things done.

We’ve been meeting with a lot of really interesting people and organisations this week. Martin have been away censoring at IT University on mobile and social IT related thesisses. We have been putting a next to final hand on our sparkling, new office. And thanks to (or despite of) TDC we...

How the Internet is changing the industries of physical goods

05 December - 2011Magnus0
For quite some time we and others have been talking about and helping companies understand how the Internet – and the way the Internet is being build – is changing business and the way we work forever.
We have been stressing how the way the Internet is build and the easy-to-use tools and software have driven the cost not only to publish, but to manufacture, distribute and collaborate - the cost of innovation (as Joi Ito describes it) -...

A quick note about our week

25 November - 2011Magnus0

Hi all,


It's been to long since we last wrote but we hope we will change this in the future. One thing we would like to do more of (inspired by BERG) is to sum up our week in a weekly post. So that we remember what we've done when we look back at all of this and so that you know a bit more about what we're up to. So here goes, the first of many…


 


For quite some time we have been researching and exploring how the internet disrupts business as we know it, and much of our time this week have been focused on this. Kim have been talking with Mads Tofte from ITU, I have been meeting with people from the CBI project on co-creation and collaborative business models, and we have discussed a new research focus for next year with some new collaborators.


 


Kim, Jonas and myself have been kicking of our Farm project. Kim and Jonas have been conducting interviews and research and I have been doing some planning and initial analysis on the challenges with the project together with our client, while Nicolaj have been working on prototypes for the coming workshops. Things looks good.


Martin have been traveling, doing presentations and talked to quite a few member organizations about the difficulties and relevance of "getting the internet into the organization" and adjusting to the fact that the organizations primary interface to its surroundings is digital. He has also been working hard to wrap up our latest open innovation project together with Dan and Emil. Emil have spent time with Nicolaj, working on some of our own...


Beside this, there have been quite a few new business meetings this week and some internal huddles on an event we are planning for the beginning of next year. An event that includes new offices (OMG). But more on this later.


For now, have a great weekend. I know I will.

Sig "Hej" til Dan; vores nye udviklingschef

07 April - 2011Magnus1
Socialsquare har siden vi startede i 2005 været gode til at udvikle strategier sammen med vores kunder. Det er vi stolte over og den slags opgaver bliver vi ved med at lave. Men det er der hvor gummiet møder vejen, hvor planerne bliver iværksat og strategierne bliver virkelighed, at forandringerne sker. Af samme grund har vi i en periode kigget efter det rigtige talent til at udvide vores team med teknisk spidskompetence, et stærkt innovativt...

Socialsquare 5 år: nye ledelse, nye ejere, nyt fokus og nye ambitioner

13 August - 2010Magnus4
I de seneste 5 år har Socialsquare pioneret markedet for det sociale internet. Vi har lært danske virksomheder, hvad blogs er - og hvordan man bruger dem. Vi har introduceret til nye sociale netværk, vi har lavet frontløberprojekter på kunde- og borgerinvolvering, lavet wikis, communities og idéplatforme. Vi har lavet strategier for nogle af Danmarks største virksomheder. Vi har holdt oplæg på oplæg, snakket og revset, lyttet og læst.

Organisational prototyping - adopting participatory tools bit by bit

05 Marts - 2009Magnus2
Although a lot of people conduct research, analyze and write about how organisations are using social computing and participatory tools it is fair to say that is far to early to conclude a best practice or write a step-by-step "how-to" guide on the subject. It still up for grabs and I find the situation quite interesting – I guess this rather long post could act as evidence of that (now you´re warned).

In McKinsey Quarterly recent review on...
