Access innovation
Access innovation refers to the development of new ways to provide people with greater access to products, services, or information. This can be achieved through the use of new technologies, business models, or social policies.
Examples of access innovation include:
- Digital technologies that enable remote access to services such as healthcare, education, or financial services.
- Sharing economy platforms that allow individuals to share resources, such as housing or transportation, in a more efficient and cost-effective way.
- Social policies that provide greater access to healthcare, education, or other essential services to underserved populations.
- Business models that offer affordable or free products or services to consumers who may not be able to afford them otherwise.
Overall, access innovation can help to reduce inequality and increase opportunities for individuals and communities who may face barriers to access due to factors such as income, geography, or disability.
