Everyday Edisons
About The Show,
Everyday Edisons
After a successful first
season of
Everyday Edisons
they are in
production on Season 2
and have just finished casting
calls for Season 3. The show
is named for and follows
in the footsteps of the
greatest inventor of all
time, Thomas Edison.
With over 1000 invention
patents to his credit,
Edison invented such
useful items as the
phonograph and
incandescent light bulb
and produced the first
talking moving picture.
Big Idea Group Hunts
Deadline for these hunts will be August 5, 2008.
Two Idea Hunts are on for a major electronics company. Our client, a large electronics company, is interested in innovations in both patient monitoring systems and mobile social networking devices. The prizes in both Hunts are the same: a $5,000 first prize, plus $1,000 apiece to four runners-up. In addition, all ideas will be evaluated for licensing. Click here for entry forms and guidelines (www.bigideahunts.net).
SOLUTIONS IN PATIENT
MONITORING SYSTEMS
Our client is seeking to
develop hospital patient
monitors that are
uniquely simple yet
smart. These new
monitors will offer
greater ease of use,
maintenance, and repair.
We’re also seeking
innovative marketing,
sales, and service ideas
to help sell such
devices. Devices should
be aimed at U.S.
hospitals, international
and secondary facilities
(e.g., long-term care),
and home care. We are
most interested in brand
solutions—innovations in
interface design and
technology that could
work across multiple
monitors.
SOCIAL NETWORKING DEVICE
Our client is seeking to
develop a mobile device
that allows users to
share ideas and
experiences from
anywhere. This
single-purpose social
networking device (SND)
will let users capture,
enhance, or create a
variety of media and
then distribute or
publish it to friends,
coworkers, or the
Internet. We expect the
device to appeal to a
broad group of users,
from young people
Twittering about their
lives to professionals
updating associates via
email while on the road.
