We partner with our clients to create lasting impact. We do this in three ways: Innovation and Growth Strategy, Leadership Development and Insights from global entrepreneur community

We help our clients to:

Innovate

Build new ventures and business models that grow revenues.

Define the highest value areas to innovate in line with business priorities.
With the help of veteran entrepreneurs, use our Venture Sprint to explore needs, generate solutions, leverage existing resources, and develop or reconfigure business models to test with real customers - in as little as a day.
Turn the highest potential ideas into prototypes and iterate into viable businesses.
Continue to develop opportunities with a system that leverages your communities and our global community of entrepreneurs.

Develop

Develop entrepreneurial leaders, mindsets, and culture with unique skills and strategies.

Build an entrepreneurial mindset and culture as you work alongside successful entrepreneurs.
All our custom programmes develop your leaders through highly interactive, challenging entrepreneurial experiences that provide a platform for reflection, commitment, tailored action plans, and coaching.
Learn how to ‘set the stage’ as a leader of innovation, rather than just an innovator.
Master other key leadership traits of an entrepreneurial corporate leader, including building and leveraging communities, authentic communication, and creating purpose and alignment.
We are experienced at designing highly bespoke programmes and curricula to develop outward-looking, agile, strategic leaders up to and including CEO level.

Grow

Build a more innovative, fast-moving, focused organisation.

Define and design an effective innovation strategy that's right for your company’s needs.
Develop your own 'engine' that fully supports, accelerates, and scales entrepreneurial results.
Make innovation real with measurable, accountable targets.
Develop the culture, skills, and processes you need to fit your particular focus and reinforce these through our Master Circles.
