How It Came to the Innovation<br />

<br />

Mr. Manshuk Lal Raghavji Bhai<br />

Prajapati<br />

Born 19-10-1965<br />

<br />

<br />

Village Wankaner (Gujarat) Dis.<br />

Rajkot<br />

Experienced supervisor in roof<br />

tiles manufactur<br />

Earthquake 2001<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

Clay pots, traditionally used to<br />

cool food (poor man’s fridge) were<br />

broken<br />

No or very limited electricity<br />

No <strong>way</strong> to store and cool food<br />

After more than three years of continuous efforts and<br />

failures, in 2004 Prajapati's clay fridge model worked<br />

successfully. He called his product ‚<strong>Mitti</strong><strong>Cool</strong>‘.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Mitti</strong><strong>Cool</strong> <strong>Refrigerator</strong><br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

MCR01-Refridgerator<br />

uses evaporation effect to cool<br />

keeps the temperature inside<br />

the "fridge" about 8 degrees<br />

below room temperature<br />

used to cool water, milk and<br />

vegetables<br />

<br />

<br />

21ºC to 0ºC.<br />

From the graph it can be seen that it takes<br />

approximately 80min to reach 7ºC for a typical<br />

compressor fridge. (2)<br />

Affordable product<br />

Product with low maintenance cost<br />

<strong>Refrigerator</strong> that works in low electricity<br />

supply<br />

Environment friendly in manufacturing,<br />

use and recycling<br />

Governments may consider to subsidize<br />

It isn’t a pot, it is a fridge!<br />

Potential new users may focus on the<br />

environment friendliness and live-style<br />

Carlos Ghosn, the legendary CEO of Renault and Nissan: „...Western companies<br />

create a healthy rivalry among their global R&D teams, leverage emerging-world<br />

partners who are used to working with resource constraints and send top executives to<br />

emerging countries so that they can develop a frugal engineering mindset...“<br />

Limitation of Jugaad<br />

(Dharmesh Sharma, Business Development)<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

Not easily embedded in an innovation system<br />

Organisations would need to allow individuals to provide idiosyncratic solutions<br />

without being constrained by approvals and processes<br />

Jugaad is propelled by a fix-it attitude that creates a just-in-time solution to<br />

solve a tightly bounded problem – not on strategic level<br />

Scaleability: hard to make it to commercially viable business opportunities<br />

Indian entrepreneurship is mostly need-based, while Western entrepreneurship<br />

is opportunity based<br />

THE END<br />

Group Discussion<br />

• Is it more invention then innovation?<br />

• Does the historical background and the principle of Jugaad allow<br />

us to call it a user innovation?<br />

• Do you see potential for <strong>Mitti</strong><strong>Cool</strong> on all continents? Why? (How?)<br />

• How extensible is business model of user innovation in this case?<br />

• How could Jugaad be used in our culture ?<br />

• Where are the limits and issues (e.g. IP, economy of scale, etc) ?<br />

Jugaad Innovation<br />

what is the meaning of new?<br />

use of existing assets and material to solve an existing problem<br />

What is the role of uncertainty in the user innovation<br />

very limited risk; minimal resources needed, focused but limitted on<br />

local isseus<br />

process<br />

based on need and experience<br />

When is user innovation collective and when is it an<br />

individual endeavor?<br />

How is user innovation compensated?<br />

How do user innovations translate into market innovations<br />

by user entrepreneurs or manufacturers?<br />
