Promoted by the Technology Platform in Logistics, Intermodality and Mobility, Logistop, a Improbable Innovation Path  workshop was held in Madrid. This workshop on innovation applied to logistics aimed to familiarise the participants with some of the basic concepts of open, collaborative innovation and use this to construct the genesis of important, high impact R+D+i projects, as well as enhance an openness and development of R+D+i lines.

Logistop believes that a more creative vision can “lead to project proposals with the extra edge of innovation to attract funding, thus making a difference when it comes to the extremely intense competition in any funding programme”.
 

Various participatory dynamics were used in the four-hour laboratory, highlights of which included Chain of Questions, an activity based on questioning various innovation issues, the Taking on the improbable game, or the construction of an Innovation Path produced by each participant in the workshop.
