A Co-Creation Lab for Innovation for Future Markets (CCLIFM)
The goal of the CCLIFM project is to study the phenomenon of co-creation of innovation by establishing a co-creation lab at Copenhagen Business School as a tool for seeking and creating future markets for technology products.
The establishment of the CCLIFM will serve as a hub for co-creating an ecosystem where researchers, industry, entrepreneurs, students, policy makers, NGO’s and other stakeholders in Denmark will have an opportunity to co-create new solutions for seeking new markets in emerging economies, such as India.
The project team is currently working on multiple different subprojects including:
1) The 2nd International Co-Creation Conference, which will be held in September 2011 at Copenhagen Business School, bringing together the stakeholders from industry and academia working with co-creation processes
2) the CCLIIFFM Bilateral Network with IITB India, which aims to conceptualize co-creation of IT innovation for future market creation along with tools and methodologies, where managerial knowledge is combined with technical as well as local knowledge to create sustainable business models, strategies, technologies and tools for researchers as well as industrial partners.
3) Developing an EU STREP application to finance the physical lab infrastructure at Copenhagen Business School.
The project is currently funded by:
Danish Agency for Science Technology and Innovation (2011), Danish Design Week (2011)

Digital Game Piracy
Digital game piracy is a massive problem for the rapidly developing creative industries, with millions of illegal copies of digital game software being distributed every month on a worldwide basis and billions of DKK in potential sales revenue lost every year due to illegal copying and file sharing via piracy channels such as torrent networks and file-hosting services.
There are next to no hard, independent data on game piracy, across AAA-levels to indie games, despite numerous reports about massive piracy rates reported for all types of games (as high as several hundred percent). The Digital Game Piracy project is in collaboration with international colleagues collecting extensive data about bittorrent activities for hundreds of games, correlating these with geographic-, market- and game variables to explore the patterns of game piracy across national boundaries. This research will aid the gaming industry by providing an understanding of the dynamics of the market and enable it to cater to it more effectively. For example, providing an overview of the national differences in game piracy, showing which countries constitute the biggest piracy nations (important when planning launch strategies), and whether particular types of games are heavily pirated in particular areas, will enable the industry to capitalize on these characteristics and to launch more well-informed strategies to combat piracy. The project will shed light on unresolved questions in the industry, and will provide empirical evidence on game piracy behavior and the sheer magnitude of the problem, which branch organizations and interest groups can utilize to inform policy makers in Denmark and internationally – for example the Danish Ministry for Culture, that is currently reviewing illegal file sharing towards building new policies, but does not have detailed reports on game file sharing at its disposal.
The project is co-funded by Copenhagen Entertainment and Copenhagen Business School

ABT-SKAT - a project funded by PWT Foundation
The Danish PWT Foundation - Investments in Public Welfare Technology (ABT-Fonden)
The programme is located in and administered by the Danish Agency for Governmental Management (a governmental agency under the Ministry of Finance).
The Danish government has allocated 3 billion DKK (about 400 million Euros) to a dedicated programme (2009 to 2015) directed towards developing and improving public sector services through the implementation of labour-saving technologies and more efficient working processes.
Project:
“Intelligent og tillidsbaseret indsats overfor selvstændige erhvervsdrivende”
Ved hjælp af tillidsbaserede kontrolprincipper vil SKAT forsøge at forebygge fejl i selvangivelserne fra de selvstændige erhvervsdrivende. SKAT vil sikre, at virksomhedsoplysninger bliver delt med de selvstændige erhvervsdrivende, så de hjælpes til at selvangive rigtigt. Det vil mindske behovet for efterfølgende kontrol.

Nurses as mediators for patients’ use of social media in self-management of chronic diseases
The use of social media in healthcare is gaining momentum.
An increasing number of patients with chronic illnesses are becoming active users of information provided on the Internet through online patient communities and other types of social media. Contrary to the information in clinical electronic record systems that is professionally generated and approved, social media represent more informal and interactive connections among people who need support in dealing with their disease. The increased use of social media means that many patients are well-informed about their health condition, thus taking on a new role with respect to self-management outside the realm of healthcare institutions. For a majority of patients, social media provide them with a broader understanding of their chronic disease and the possibility of discussing and relating personal experiences and needs.
This project extends previous research on the use of technology in healthcare by focusing on how nurses can act as mediators to facilitate and support patients’ adoption and use of social media. The research question that guides the project is:
How can nurses in primary care in their role as information mediators facilitate patients’ use of social media in their self-management to ensure better quality and coherence of their treatment?
Two researchers from the department are currently working on this project, Annemette Kjærgaard and Tina Blegind Jensen.
Responsible Business in the Blogosphere
CSR and online communication on social media
The purpose of the three-year project is to examine how the reputation of companies as a “responsible business” is constructed online in virtual social networks. The research project will analyze the socio-economic value of such virtual constructions of responsible business. This means perceptions of corporate economic, social, and environmental responsibility – what is referred to as ethical capital. The project will develop new methods of measurement that include online users’ creation of the companies’ reputation, which affects the value creation of the companies.
The project is based on the hypothesis that online communication processes, though autonomous, are not necessarily unpredictable, and that these online communication processes exhibit regular patterns that are possible to identify by means of socio-economic case studies, linguistic analyses, data-mining, and mathematical modeling. To provide in-depth qualitative analyses of companies’ strategy making efforts when engaging in online communication with stakeholders, the project will include 12 case studies including the Danish companies of Novo Nordisk and Novozymes.
Who’s behind?
The project is funded by The Danish Ministry of Science with a grant of 12 million DKK and is carried out in collaboration between CBS and DTU with the participation of several private companies. Project owner is Mette Morsing, professor at CBS, Center for Corporate Social Responsibility.
The project runs 4 years from August 2009.
