Our Clients
Knowledge-based Innovators
Knowledge-based Innovators improve processes, products and services. Innovation is not market diffusion of an existing product or service. It's a new product or service or a significant adaptation.
TruMe Whole Health is a knowledge-based innovation client that developed an innovative range of nutrition and health products.
Novel Technology Inventors
Novel Technology Inventors create new products, services and processes that don't exist. Novel technology is not technology adoption. It is a technological invention.
Kinetisense is a novel technology client that developed the world’s first patented markerless motion capture analysis system.

Your ideas can change the world.
Inventors make new. Innovators make better.

You’re on a journey
But you don’t have to go alone. Our clients tend to be in one of these four phases. Pre-startup, startup, scaleup and established (sometimes considered high-growth phase).
Pre-startup
During the pre-startup phase, you have an idea, but you're still figuring it out. You’re looking for expertise and advice. And a pathway to turn your ideas into a concept.
Startup
During the startup phase, you have a solid concept and a prototype but keep hitting roadblocks. You’re trying to validate your offering and find product-market fit.
Scale-up
During the scale-up phase, you’re looking to accelerate growth. You are focused on growth indicators, like customer acquisition, sales and revenue (or investment) and market share.
Specialized support
Once established, you’re looking for specialized help to bring your product to new markets or export globally. Your business is now moving into a high-growth phase.
