Overview

(re)innovate challenge is a national business planning challenge designed to teach Australian business how to be more innovative.

The first thing to do is think of a great idea for the business you work in (register your interest and we’ll help you with this!) The next step is to get a team together and enter your idea by 27 November 2008. Once your team has entered we’ll provide you with heaps of support and training to help build your idea into an executable business plan.

Final business plans are pitched to our judging panels in May 2009. To spice things up a bit, state awards are given to the businesses with the most innovative and well developed ideas across six categories. These businesses are then eligible for the national prizes, which are announced at the gala awards night in July 2009. The total prize pool for the national prizes is over $100,000!

Benefits to Participants

As a participant of (re)innovate challenge you will get:

  • Access to practical creativity tools to help you come up with ideas
  • Full training in building an idea into a viable business case. This is delivered through training manuals, video workshops and on-line mentor forums
  • The chance to pitch a fully developed idea that your business can invest in
  • And last but not least, the chance to be showered in glory and win awards and prizes for your business!

Benefits to Businesses

Businesses that enter a team into (re)innovate challenge will:

  • Have a team of employees trained in taking an idea from concept to reality
  • Gain in-depth knowledge of the (re)innovate challenge process which can be used to drive innovation in your business in the future
  • Have at least one high potential idea developed to the stage where you can make an investment decision

And if a team representing your business wins one of the state awards or national prizes, your business will be recognised as one of the most innovative in Australia.
