Let’s transcend established patterns and conventional approaches.
Let's work together to discover the innovation potential of your company.
Shape the future of your business: Alpha Innovation is an innovation method developed at NOI Techpark, guided by the concept of front-end innovation. It helps you to identify future opportunities and needs, develop radically new ideas and then make well-founded decisions about how to implement them. Our innovation management team guides your company through the process in three steps:
Three steps
Alpha Innovation serves as a beacon. A springboard for ideas. An incubator for decision-making. Three questions serve as a starting point and source of inspiration:
Tech Opportunities: what opportunities will technologies present?
Needs of People: what needs will people have in five, ten or even more years?
Needs of Nature: what does nature need to ensure the survival of our planet?
DISCOVER OPPORTUNITIES – the beacon
During a collaborative workshop, we assess your company’s innovation profile along with its challenges, needs and potential for the future, which allows us to identify your unique opportunity areas for innovation. We go in search of signals to derive potential innovation directions for your company and evaluate these directions. We then select the most viable options and take those to the next step: the development of realistic scenarios.
How does this work in practice? Take a look at our most recent radar.
CREATE IDEAS – the springboard
Now is the time for creativity: during the Alpha Innovation Challenge, your innovation team develops one or more ideas for the selected scenarios and personas. We start by defining the parameters: the subject area, format, partners or experts for possible collaboration, schedules and organisation. We think outside the box. Develop proposals and ideas, dismissing some, rethinking others and evaluating them. We select the most promising ones and develop them further. Until we have a draft concept ready to be fleshed out and thoroughly tested in the third step of the Alpha Innovation Method.
MAKE DECISIONS – the incubator for decisions
The last step of the Alpha Innovation Method focuses on making informed, sustainable decisions. First, we check whether the innovation (1) generates clear added value for future users. We also focus on (2) technical feasibility: an analysis of production processes, practicality and risks is carried out. Another central aspect: (3) Will nature and society benefit from the innovation? And (4) will it also be economically viable?
Can your concept hold its own against all four decisive criteria? Congratulations! The path to radical innovation is open, and you can start bringing your concept to life.
Here you will find comprehensive information about our Alpha Innovation Method.
Our Alpha Innovation Radar on “Digital Technologies for Nature”
Unlike the radars that we tailor for a single company, this radar provides innovation impulses for a large number of businesses. Four areas of innovation have been selected: Responsible Use of Resources, Efficient Processes, Conscious Consumption, Resilient Regions.
