Abstract

We are finding rising demands for chance discovery, i.e., methods for focusing on new events significant for human's decision making. Innovation Game is a tool for aiding innovative thoughts and communication, coming after our 10-year experiences in chance discovery where tools of data visualization have been applied in cases of decision making by business teams. This game enables us to run and accelerate the process of innovation, as well as to train human's talent of analogical and combinatorial thinking. In this paper, it is shown that the effects of Innovation Game are enhanced, especially when suitable communications and timely usage of a tool for visualizing the map of knowledge are executed.
