There has been much talk here about collaboration - In fact Betacup encourages "A different contest format...." - namely collaboration http://www.thebetacup.com/ - Some of us are of the like mind that there is value in collaborating to solve this problem. With the clock ticking (approx 30 days left), the time is now for a small group of individuals to apply a collaborative effort towards a solution.
How to Apply
If interested drop a "Notice of Intent to Collaborate" in my box here on Jovoto. The winnings will be divided equitably among four individuals. Hurry space and time is limited - this is not first come first serve. More details will follow after we know who the players are.
Our Challenge
We are looking for team players - Our challenge: Develop a concept comprised of a cross section of team member's submissions - then combine through collaboration our efforts to create a rock solid idea.
Serious Business
Although this is serious business to the true creative this will be "fun" - like kids playing on the playground. OK lets handle business and do what we do - Create stuff!

As provided the Callbo Cup is combination of "previously" submitted ideas. The following is a
breakdown of how our ideas come together as one within the framework of
the Collabo Cup.
Product Design Sustainability Incentive
The goal here is towards promoting use of branded SBUX biodegradable cup as well as
existing SBUX recyclable to-go tumblers
How it Works
■ Purchase a "biodegradable" Beta Cup http://bit.ly/-thebetacup Owner:
http://bit.ly/JeskoStoetzer or recyclable tumbler for a chance to win sweepstakes prizes
(e.g. a free beverage, a free cup/tumbler, an electric car, $50 to $10,000 cash, etc)
http://bit.ly/-sweepstakes Owner: http://bit.ly/Qvistar.
1. Make a qualifying purchase to receive sweepstakes ticket/number
2. Access given website (e.g. www.starbucks/rewards.com)
3. Enter ticket number
4. Claim prize if any
Communications Incentive Social Network
This particular function of the Callabo Cup promises to promote a SBUX branded social
community
How it Works
■ See the following submission http://bit.ly/reuse-rewards-community Owner:

Behavioral Change Reuse Incentive
The following targets providing incentive to track and influence behavioral change.
How it Works
■ In contrast to a key chain and barcode functionality to track reuse as provided by
http://bit.ly/code-green Owner: http://bit.ly/sweetmelissa9978 - In contrast to track
reuse this idea proposes using www.starbucks.com/card/rewards functionality as provided
by http://bit.ly/My-SBUX-reuse-rewards Owner:
http://bit.ly/Qvistar
The Whole Experience
This element of the Collabo Cup brings the entire experience full circle by augmenting and
underscoring sustainability.
How it Works
■ Sirena Hour (http://bit.ly/-sirena) Owner: http://bit.ly/cochrancreates
This will focus on reusable containers and relaxing at the local SBUX with a mug or
tumbler. Paper cups during the Sirena will be strongly discouraged.
■ The Clean Cup (http://bit.ly/clean-cup) Owner: http://bit.ly/ALong
Facilitates cup rinse functionality - This can be facilitated by something as simple as a rinse-
o-matic - http://bit.ly/rinse-o-matic® - or Clean Cup functionality as presented
■ The Champion Cup (http://bit.ly/Champion-Cup) Owner: http://bit.ly/-raphdamico
Here the goal is towards enabling functionality that measures reuse - as provide when
reuse occurs it is displayed in near or real time on reader boards at each SBUX location and
via the Internet. "How do we know that we are making
difference? Before [we] can change, [we] need to measure."
Why the Collabo Cup? In few words because.... http://bit.ly/be-cause - We are humbled by this experience and thank you in advance for the rating and commenting - We look forward to answering any questions.
Very Kind Regards,
The Collabo Cup Team ♚

I completely agree with you that collaboration has a lot potential and the more perspectives you get the better and clearer the picture gets. But for collaboration you should ask before you announce the idea of somebody else as a part of a collaborative work. If you ask before you will get much more input, cause people can decide, influence and WORK with you on your suggestion. = )
Good luck with this one and best regards from berlin, yours jesko

Your idea is wonderful but...
as Jesko has stated ....you have brought me on board and included me without waiting for my final decision.
You are forgiven ; ) Please keep me better informed... I woke up and was part of a team that I didn't know I was going to be a part of. We can see how it goes though. Talk to you soon!

Furthermore my kind gentleman from Berlin We - I would venture to say - have invested nothing in this except a little time and talent that was freely bestowed upon us during our brief moment here on Earth. If we gain monetarily from this fine - if not still fine. Making of good friends is priceless!
Good day from the good'ole US of A - if you ever decide to visit Seattle the Home of Starbucks - be sure and look me up! And remember no venture no gain ; )
Kind Regards,
Charles

Perhaps jovoto should give a time to let contributors introduce themselves, give a short briefing of their idea and give them the time to look for a suitable collaborator. The second phase would then be the working phase, where all those ideas could be bundled.
If there was a conest in the future that would be constructed like this, I would partake!
