Design and Innovation is increasingly becoming an important lever for creating new opportunities for companies as new technologies emerge, creating new markets.

Co-creation is an innovative way to combine resources across different knowledge platforms and geographical regions. Co-creation is the process of visualizing, designing, combining and developing an artifact or systems that support the commercialization of that artifact. The focus of co-creation is to seek and design new and future markets. The process of co-creation is as much a process of coordination as it is of knowledge generation, construction and instruction. Co-creation implies the coming together of diverse, non-similar knowledge bases to collectively identify an opportunity and pool their knowledge and resources together to take advantage of the opportunity. In co-creation of IT innovation, information technology - with its domain flexible knowledge - drives the opportunity identification and goal setting.

The 2^nd Copenhagen Co-Creation Conference will gather stakeholders from the academia, the industry and the civil society to create an environment of proactive dialogue about co-creation. The goal of the conference is to explore how markets can be identified, formed and explored via co-creation processes, and how markets redefine themselves and evolve by engaging with co-creation; and how Information and Communication Technology (ICT) can assist the process of co-creation over time and space.

The conference will address both the managerial and entrepreneurial challenges of engaging with 'co-creation' as a concept and the academic challenges of researching on co-creating innovation for future markets.

The 2^nd Copenhagen Co-Creation Conference is organized with an academic summit the 1^st of September, and a industry-focused workshop on the 2^nd of September.

The conference will seek to explore co-creation from (at least) two perspectives:

·Allow a space for the industry to populate the concept of co-creation with ideas from practice (either the ones being used or planned to be used) along with possible difficulties and challenges involved due to organizational constraints.

·Allow a space for academics to draw upon research and develop models, tools and techniques that would enrich the idea of co-creation.

*For submission guidelines and additional information, consult the conference website: **/www.cocreatech.dk/* http://www.cocreatech.dk*(launches formally late February 2011). *

*_Target Audience _*

The conference is expected to gather and inspire academics, professionals, researchers, activists, managers, entrepreneurs, think-tanks and leaders who would deliberate upon the opportunities and challenges of building a future market through Co-creation models. It will draw upon experiences, expertise, and knowledge-sharing from across the academia, government, civil society, community of practitioners, international organizations, bilateral and multilateral agencies.

*_Themes for Submissions_*

We invite submissions on a variety of topics in the context of co-creation. Functionally, papers will be organized around four clusters of ideas, as follows:
