Mosaic community
Where ideas converge to create meaningful lasting innovation
Mosaic unites a dynamic community of organizations and individuals from diverse sectors who are connected by a shared passion for creativity and innovation. As a space for connection, research, and collaboration, Mosaic encourages the exchange of practices and the co-creation of projects with sustainable impact. Our living, evolving community continually gives rise to initiatives that rethink innovation and strengthen the connections between academia, industry, and society – over time and across contexts.
Discover a few stories that capture this collective energy.
The Upside-Down Model – Co-creation, Communities, and Innovation
Anne Déroulède and Jean-Marc Djian found inspiration for their book, The Upside-Down Model, at the 2017 Summer School. Immersed in an environment of ideas and collaboration, the authors were inspired to explore the dynamics of innovation communities. This exploration ultimately led to the book.
Their thinking was shaped not only by the Summer School experience but also by the book Communities, co-authored by Mosaic co-directors Patrick Cohendet and Laurent Simon, and countless conversations with passionate participants who offered new ideas. The result is a book that celebrates the power of co-creation and the communities that drive innovation.
