<!-- Intro -->
You are in need of taking a serious decision? Do you have more than one person who has an opinion about the issue you are discussing? Do you wish to engage your friends or whoever is a stakeholder in an open, structured, democratic deliberation to take together the more wise decision?
'''Katerina Fotiou''' joined the [[Cyprus Neuroscience and Technology Institute]] in July 2012, as member of the [[New Media Lab]]. Her main task is in the programming of mobile device based Apps for the third generation Cogniscope and for "intelligent" educational games. Her responsibilities also include development of all websites and electronic infrastructure of the organisation.


Idea Prism was designed to harness the collective intelligence and collective wisdom of groups. It equips anyone with the ability to launch a virtual dialogue. All you need is to give your dialogue a name, enter a smart triggering question to stimulate the discussion, and invite others to participate. Members of your dialogue may contribute ideas in the form of single-sentence statements, and subsequently add one or two paragraphs as clarification. They can also shoot short videos right from their device and upload a lively clarification to the cloud for others to consider. The App allows participants to ask questions, request further clarifications, choose ideas according to perceived importance, desirability, feasibility etc. Furthermore, it applies interpretative structural modeling to support participants to compare their ideas according to the influence they exert on each other and thus collectively construct influence maps. More importantly, using patent-pending parallel interpretative structural modeling algorithms, it allows individual maps of ideas to be overlaid mathematically thus harnessing collective wisdom.


The App allows one to collect and view all ideas on an issue, export, email, print and/or share them in multiple environments.
Katerina is young leader with interest in [[Reinventing Democracy]] and social reforms. She is a trained Facilitator for the [[Structured Dialogic Design Process]].


The launching of Idea Prism v1 signals a revolution in communication. It is the first App that makes the science of complex systems and third-phase science accessible to people. It is scientifically grounded on Dialogic Design Science.<!-- End Intro-->
'''Katerina''' also works at [[Ekkotek High-tech business incubator|Ekkotek Ltd.]], which operates as the technology partner and technology transfer office of [[Future Worlds Center]]. Katerina's main contribution includes apps' development that support communication and information access among people from different communities, such as names of villages and places on the island. She is also engaged with apps designed to harness the collective intelligence and collective wisdom of groups. What is more, she is responsible for apps creation that are intended to  help kids on sending reports when something disturbing,strange or harmful occurs while they are surfing online.<!-- End Intro-->
