Think Tank Brain Storming – Case Study

Think Tank Brain Storming – Case Study

Recently, our Online Think Tank did a little brain-storming on a new innovative product, which had just hit the market. The device was a special cooling unit that one could wear over their heads like a hat, combination face guard. It looked like something you might see in a wrestling match only it was attached to a central cooling unit.

The inventors of this special system had been marketing it as a medical device, obviously that is one excellent use for such a thing, still they were wondering what other markets might be available. Thus, we started brain-storming on potential killer applications. One Think Tank member turned in this list after 14-minutes. It seems as he went on the potential applications became better and better. Indeed, a couple of them were chosen by the group to actually go with, to launch a into a new sub-market. Below is the list, see what you think?

It is truly amazing how the human mind works or how well some people can see something and instantly come up with applications in such a short amount of time. Just think if all of our minds could do this – that is what we are thinking right now.
