Is your company struggling with producing new green offers? Each business line may have ideas to meet net zero requirements, but without a coherent strategy, these ideas go undeveloped. Innovation hackathons and cross-functional activities can bridge these gaps. They foster synergy, break down silos, and ensure early buy-in, transforming great ideas into actionable strategies.

Maximizing co-innovation value requires fair facilitation ideally by a neutral party, ensuring startups and corporates operate on equal footing and fulfil promises. Open communication leverages startup networks for R&D and new commercial partnerships for Corporates while scalable client delivery is often taught in return.

Many internal ventures fail or don’t even lift-off. Balancing risk philosophies between corporate and startup entities is challenging, as is overcoming resource constraints and maintaining startup agility. Getting the right balance of independence while leveraging corporate advantages requires tailored governance, policies, and interactions with business lines.
