Co-Creation & InnovationLab: Working together to achieve a digital solution faster
In our Innovation Labs, we work with you to develop new ideas, prototypes and MVPs in a user-centered, validated and with a clear implementation perspective. Co-creation creates clarity, speed and products that exist on the market.
Typical customer challenges
Departments & IT don't speak the same language
Silos are blocking innovation. Opportunity: Co-creation workshops bring IT and specialist departments together for a common vision.
Users are involved too late
Products fail because user needs are ignored. Opportunity: Early involvement through design thinking increases relevance & acceptance.
Failure culture is missing and blocks innovation
Failure is taboo, risks are avoided. Opportunity: Innovation Labs create safe spaces for experimentation and learning.
Our service modules
Interaction Room & Strategy Workshops
In our moderated workshops, IT and specialist departments work together to develop a clear target image, visualize processes and identify prioritized solutions. Structured formats such as the Interaction Room create tangible results instead of endless coordination.
Innovation consulting & ideation formats
Together with your stakeholders, we identify relevant fields of innovation and develop well-founded, creative ideas prioritized according to benefits and feasibility in structured ideation workshops.
Design thinking & user-centered development
We guide your team through a structured innovation process from user understanding to ideation to the tested prototype. This creates digital solutions that are technically feasible and relevant for your customers.
Innovation Sprints & Rapid Prototyping
In short sprints, we jointly develop initial prototypes as a clickable UI dummy, simulation or technical proof of concept. Through rapid user feedback, we check ideas for usability and feasibility at an early stage.

MVP validation & technical feasibility check
We support you in implementing a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) with a clear focus: Quickly test whether your idea offers real added value. In parallel, we check by Proof-of-concepts the technical feasibility for well-founded decisions as to whether and how further development will take place.
Cross-functional team formats & digital leadership enablement
Successful innovation requires the right culture. We establish cross-functional innovation formats such as innovation labs, hackathons or cross-divisional project teams. At the same time, we strengthen your managers through targeted Digital Leadership Enablement: practical training and coaching that imparts modern management methods, agile principles and error management for more innovative strength throughout the company.
Approach & methods
Our work is based on established methods and frameworks for innovation development. A selection of important approaches that we use as required:
Benefits with Codenius
Why should you choose for your web project Codenius choose as a partner? Here are just a few of the benefits that set us apart:
Interdisciplinary team of experts
Our moderators combine expertise from business, UX, IT and change for holistic solutions that inspire users and are sustainable.
Diversity of methods & structure
Design thinking, sprints, ideation games we bring the appropriate methods to focus creativity and achieve tangible results.
Innovation with acceptance
What good is the best idea if no one supports it? Through co-creation, solutions are created together with the people who later use or implement them, creating identification, understanding and acceptance. This is how innovation becomes lived change.
Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
What is the difference between co-creation and traditional consulting?
Co-creation is not just a consultation, but a joint work process. Instead of recommendations from outside, solutions are developed in collaboration with customers, specialist areas and IT. This increases relevance, acceptance and speed of implementation.
How do we start a co-creation project at Codenius?
Usually with a focused workshop, e.g. in the “Interaction Room” format. There, we develop a vision, use cases and initial solutions together. This often results in a first prototype or an MVP roadmap.
How long does a typical innovation sprint last?
A classic Design Sprint runs over five days. For larger projects, we are planning multi-level formats with multiple iterations. First prototypes or validated ideas are usually available after 1—3 weeks.
Who is the best person to participate?
Ideally an interdisciplinary team of specialist departments, IT, customer representatives and decision makers. We help you put together teams and ensure a structured process with clear roles.
Is co-creation also possible remotely?
Yes We work successfully with virtual tools such as Miro, Figma and Zoom. All formats, from Strategy Workshop to Design Sprint, are completely remote-enabled and have already been successfully carried out in distributed teams.
