How can your business co-innovate with the people who best understand what your audiences want? Look to the cloud.

The cloud is an enabler... sort of a new industrial revolution or renaissance in business.” Michael Krigsman agrees. “In today's world, success requires deep engagement with customers...the starting point for investment is a practical and deep understanding of cooperation with users.” Sven Denecken adds, “Co-innovation is a state of mind...next-generation cloud will support greater business flexibility and agility via rapid innovation cycles with significant customer co-innovation.”
