The hands-on method for direct impact

We don’t just give good advice—we make sure it works. Advice is only valuable when it’s followed through and put into action. Our entrepreneurial team, empowered by our global network and years of experience, is here to ensure that happens.

Our method

We identify strategic innovation opportunities — In the first phase, we map out the most promising innovation opportunities within your business strategy.

We do this based on:

  • Comprehensive Market Research: We conduct extensive market research, focusing on the latest technologies and trends. This ensures your organization stays ahead of the curve.
  • Innovation Readiness Analysis: We also analyze how prepared your company is for innovation. This gives us a clear understanding of your current situation and helps us develop a targeted strategy that perfectly aligns with your ambitions.

We guide you in selecting a strategic focus.

  • Co-Creation Workshop: Now that we have clarified your challenges and ambitions, we help you choose a strategic focus. During our Co-Creation Workshops, we bring together the strengths of your stakeholders and collaborate on concrete solutions.
  • Innovation Research: Based on the outcomes of the workshops, we search for the ideal innovation match. The sustainability sector is constantly evolving. To find the right innovation partners, we utilize our AI-driven methodology, ensuring your organization always stays one step ahead.

We develop impactful propositions.

  • Business Modeling: Once we’ve identified the right strategic partners, we work on creating impactful business cases for the selected innovation. We develop models that directly link sustainability to profitability, reduce risks, and maximize efficiency.
  • Market Mapping: Additionally, we conduct thorough market mapping to identify the best opportunities in the market. We focus on scenarios where sustainability and profitability go hand in hand, reinforcing each other. This way, we create propositions that are not only impactful but also profitable.

We support you in transforming your business and market.

  • Pilot Validation: We go beyond merely developing a business case. Achieving sustainability goals starts with successful implementation. That’s why we support you in testing through pilot programs to validate the effectiveness of your solutions.
  • Project Management: When internal capacity is limited, we offer project management support. Our team ensures that your project runs smoothly from planning to execution, allowing you to focus on the core aspects of your business.
  • Training: If knowledge and skills are a challenge for your team, we provide comprehensive training programs. These programs ensure that your employees develop the necessary skills to make the sustainable transformation a success.
