Divide and Conquer

Divide and Conquer

The Division Template is a tool for innovation that works by dividing a product physically, functionally, or in a preserving manner, which maintains the characteristics of the whole product. This approach can lead to discovering new innovative uses and benefits. Division is one of the five templates of innovation in the Systematic Inventive Thinking method, which also includes Subtraction, Task Unification, Multiplication, and Attribute Dependency. The templates of this method manipulate component parts of a product to create innovative new products. Additionally, Division is a collaborative approach that can be used on platforms like kluster.com and ideabahn.com.
