Key Activities

To capture growth through innovation and new markets, CU3IC offers a modular service delivery. We recommend a modular step-by-step approach to postpone commitment of major resources until the evidence from each step signals that the risk of taking the next step is justifiable. This step-by-step approach allows you to turn uncertainty into knowledge and ensure that your assumptions and emotions do not bias your innovation strategy and guarantee a mature basis of decision making with regard to investments, timeline, course of action and a robust risk assessment to achieve your targeted growth and markets.  The modules are sequential but may be executed independently  allowing you the flexibility to follow the suggested sequence or to only pick those modules that best fit your innovation strategy.

Our modular approach step by step

 

Step 1

DUE DILIGENCE TO DEFINE A CHALLENGE

Have you identified, prioritized and framed your major innovation challenge – if solved and implemented – will create the greatest value?

To mitigate risks with regard to future investments you need to turn uncertainty into knowledge and ensure that assumptions and emotion do not bias your decision-making with regard to your identified challenge

CU3IC offers to conduct a due diligence to precisely define your challenge in order to know exactly what you are after, so that you can purposeful approach your challenge, minimize waste and maximize your efforts.

Step 2

OPEN INNOVATION/ CROWDSOURCING TO EXPLORE THE INNOVATION MARKET

Have you explored all possible sources beyond your own field of expertise to find an appropriate, beneficial and quick solution – if implemented – will create the greatest competitive advantage?

To minimize time to market and avoid reinventing the wheel you need deep insight and a clear knowledge of the innovation market resources

CU3IC offers to apply different methods that allow finding, sharing, and integrating globally dispersed knowledge among all levels and brings together solutions from multiples disciplines, so that you can target a solution, accelerate time to market, and focus your investment on promising solutions.

FEASIBILITY STUDY TO ENSURE A MATURE BASIS OF DECISION-MAKING

Do you know the risk and success factors of your targeted solution – if well thought through – will guarantee you new growth potentials and markets?

To mitigate risks with regard to future investments you need to turn uncertainty into knowledge and ensure that assumptions and emotion do not bias your decision-making with regard to your identified solution

CU3IC offers to compile a feasibility study and provide you with trusted investigation to ensure a mature basis of decision making with regard to investments, timeline, course of action and a robust risk assessment to achieve your envisaged growth and markets.

Step 4

COMMERCIALIZATION TO CAPTURE GROWTH AND MARKET

Do you know how and where to find financial means, new abilities and partners – if well matched – will ensure the realization of your new business?

To exploit the first mover advantage and secure the competitive advantage you need to secure your new IP and/or get the necessary technology, people and attract investors to support your new venture.
