COIN-AI: An Opportunity Multiplier for Equitable Innovation Practice

Many organizations limit innovation and career advancement by relying on biased networks and practices that exclude capable contributors, particularly women. The Collaborative Opportunity and Innovation Network AI platform (COIN-AI) addresses this barrier by redesigning how innovation work is accessed, structured, and supported. The project pilots a guided, AI-enabled system that increases transparency, forms high-performing teams around innovation capabilities, and supports learning under uncertainty, resulting in more equitable participation, stronger teams, and sustained organizational innovation capacity.
