Wave.Ahead
a service ecosystem for growth transformation
We look at innovation management differently, reimagining an old business problem in the context of today's (and tomorrow's) complex realities: how organizations can systematically grow, while facing continuous waves of disruptions and left-field competitors.
We combine leading-edge academic viewpoints and business practices with our own research insights in organizational and service innovation (business ecosystems, service ecosystems), to reconsider the basics of growth transformation.
We orchestrate an ecosystem of great minds from different disciplines, with different viewpoints and experiences - academics, business executives and partner organizations - who challenge each other on how to best identify and exploit disruptions, and turn them into growth options for organizations.
