Details

The way we work is changing. All companies in every industry are seeking to become more competitive, customer-centric and fast. The amount of self-employed workers and freelancers is increasing, and the 'clock in - clock out' culture is slowly shifting towards a more liberated workplaces in terms of methods, hours and location. On the other hand, the expectations for workers around the globe are growing all the time; new equipment is needed to build high-end products, flexibility is required to keep up with the fast-paced everyday jobs, and smooth mobility is needed when the requirements for traveling is changing.

OP Financial Group is looking for ways to better support the workers of this new era. Because of the shifting working culture, new platforms, channels and methods for selling your work, creating networks, accessing necessary tools and maintaining the workload and money flows are needed in an increased capacity all the time.

The final product of this challenge can be a service concept or a working prototype of a product or platform, either physical or electronical, and should address especially this issue:

How to share resources or tools in an intelligent manner?

People these days have been moving more and more from owning-based thinking to a sharing culture. Ownership is not anymore the purpose itself. Is there hidden potential in sharing when talking about for instance micro entrepreneurs? We are looking for a solution which would help entrepreneurs to share resources and that way improve their business.
