Unlocking growth opportunities
Top performing organizations are increasingly distinguished
by their ability to transform,
exploiting disruptions
for radically reshaping their growth trajectories.
Wave.Ahead,
the Center for Growth Transformation at the University of the Aegean, Greece,
is a boutique R&D and business advisory venture
that aims to help organizations ride such growth waves.
We focus on the 'uncommon':
by combining academic ingenuity with practical management consulting activities,
to develop innovative value creation options for the organizations we work with.
Whether it is a student startup or
a multinational corporation (like Airbus and Legrand).
We deliver the 'unthinkable':
from ideation and proposition development, to execution.
Whether it is a ground-breaking business ecosystem for industrial waste management; or
an intensive training program on disruptive innovation that attracted CNN's spotlight.
