What is Nova?
Nova is an innovation management ecosystem that enables and empowers employees to innovate and challenge, find funding and see their ideas brought into reality.
Why are we doing it?
The Vodafone Way is what makes us stand out from the rest. We want to embody being “Innovation Hungry” by creating and delivering new products, services and ways of working.
How can you get involved?
You can share your ideas on the platform throughout the year or join annual events such as the Ideathon and Hackathon. You can also attend special workshops and through gamification support ideas of your peers.
How it works
Using the concept of gamification, ideas that are submitted to NOVA collect virtual ‘funding’. With enough funding, your idea can be brought to life through our idea lifecycle.
01
Idea submission & Approval
Do you have an idea that adds business value to the company? Submit it in the NOVA idea platform, and if your idea receives enough support from the community through funding, it will be sent to the NOVA board for approval.
Prototyping
Time to put your idea to the test using internal labs, crowdsourcing and co-creation with our external partners!
