International Centre for Frugal Innovation

Over International Centre for Frugal Innovation

At the International Centre for Frugal Innovation (ICFI) we generate and share knowledge on frugal innovation; smart, simple to use and affordable solutions. We are an international research centre with a global network of academics that focus on research, education and knowledge exchange on frugal innovation, from various disciplines, perspectives and geographies.

At ICFI, we collaborate internationally with academics, students, innovators, policy makers, entrepreneurs, NGOs and communities that are involved in studying, developing or implementing innovations with frugal characteristics.

Together we focus on all innovations with frugal dimensions which are often referred to using other labels such as grassroot, bottom-up, responsible or inclusive innovations. What matters within ICFI is the search for, and implementation of, innovations that are of significant relevance to address major societal challenges like the climate and energy transition, global health and food security.
