Implementing Open Innovation (IOI) themed visit @Red Bull Media House

Scout, check, make it happen

For the second themed visit, IOI takes you to Red Bull Media House (RBMH). Over the past 10 years, the Austrian energy drink maker has become a global media company that produces and distributes original content to a variety of platforms, from newsstands to Snapchat and everything in between.

Our visit will focus on how the newly established innovation department leverages disruptive technologies, creativity and new business models to shape the future of media and find successful ways to engage with Generation Z, the true digital natives (5-21 years).

More specifically, IOI community members will learn about RBMH innovation strategies and processes; use cases and success metrics; the ecosystem of partners in which the five-person innovation team operates; and how the seamless integration of successful innovations into existing processes is ensured.

Surprises designed to test your innovation mindset will be part of the event.

Background information on IOI

Implementing Open Innovation (IOI) is a strategic programme jointly run by the EBU Technology and Innovation department and the Eurovision Academy (part of the EBU Media Department).

Implementing Open Innovation:

• Examines and documents the structures and processes within an organization that make it possible to generate ideas, develop and test innovations, and eventually ensure a successful transfer into mainstream production;
• Brings to the forefront products and services that allow Public Service Media organizations to better serve digital audiences;
• Explores the local or national digital innovation landscape – start-ups, other media actors, universities – in which EBU Members operate and highlights existing strategic partnerships;
• Examines the major corporate culture change that the gradual shift to IP, IT, data and cloud-driven technologies brings about, the opportunities it creates, and how it impacts the way professionals work and the way content is produced.
