Collaborative innovation networks, or COINs, are cyber teams of self-motivated people with a collective vision, to innovatively collaborate by sharing ideas, information, and work enabled by technology. COINs are powered by swarm creativity, wherein people work together in a structure that enables a fluid creation and exchange of ideas. Patterns of collaborative innovation frequently follow an identical path, from creator to COIN to collaborative learning network (CLN) to collaborative interest network (CIN).
The COINS Conference brings together scholars, industry leaders, and practitioners to discuss the latest trends in Collaborative Innovation Networks. Our conferences have been taking place since 2009.
