To prosper, firms must develop major product and service innovations. Often, though, they don’t know how. Recent research into the innovation process has made it possible to develop “breakthroughs” systematically. 15.356 presents several practical concept development methods, such as the “Lead User Method,” where manufacturers learn from innovative customers. Expert guest speakers present case studies that show the “art” required to implement a concept development method. 15.356 is a half-term subject.

This compilation of Indigenous Business Case Studies, focusing on the BC Interior, explores marketing challenges and approaches of a variety of indigenous-owned businesses. The authors had the opportunity to have conversations with the business owners and feel honoured to have been trusted with information and data to put this collection together.

The team at Thompson Rivers University created the Indigenous Education Stock Photos collection due to a lack of open-source photos of Indigenous students for use in OER. The spirit of the photo collection is to allow educators to represent Indigenous peoples in their OER so that Indigenous students can see themselves reflected in their learning materials.

This project was funded jointly by BCcampus and the TRU OER Development Grant and developed in consultation with the TRU Office of Indigenous Education and a TRU community stakeholder session. TRU production and media teams and the TRU Open Press assisted in producing the content.

All photos have a CC BY NC SA license:

- You may use, adapt, and share them, but you must attribute the photographer and link back to the collection

- You may not use the photos for commercial purposes

- You must distribute any created derivatives under the photo’s original license
