Cooperation

with us can start from a very early stage of your innovation project.  If you choose so, we are available to exchange on any type of innovation project if it is likely to make use of our core competences. 

In this case we will provide you with a first interaction free of charge in order for both sides to build trust and evaluate whether cooperation is of mutual interest. As a rule of thumb this may be around half a day of work we would use to provide a written proposal on how to approach a given subject and discuss this in a video conference.

Further steps  -  dependent on the nature of the project -  may be an in-depth investigation in scientific literature, an anonymised collection of information from our expert network, laboratory investigations, information or innovation workshops on your premises. For such activities we will charge a contribution to our internal and external cost, not a price covering our full cost and margin310 Innovation.

It should be clearly understood that our typical business model ist not one of a stand-alone consultancy. Typically the developed solution will make us part of your value chain by manufacturing and delivering one or the other “ingredient” to you solution, typically as described under xxx, yyy and zzz.
