Outcome-driven Open Innovation

Investing in open innovation projects can be a challenge when there is no clear understanding of the outcomes. Learn more about outcome-driven open innovation projects.

Our open innovation incubator aligns all efforts to specific outcome types that are matching your needs, capacities and challenges. Our success stories with industry-leading companies like Samsung, BMW, Deloitte, Bosch, Evonik, Baker McKenzie or General Electric include outcomes like client-venturing or strategic partnerships with (early-stage) startups, research and technology transfer, internalizing innovation into own projects or talent attraction and retention.

Let us guide you towards the best outcome for your innovation efforts  and industry-challenges.
