Researher and CEO Invite TO DO
When municipalities, companies and authorities need to co-develop. We have specialized in entangled challenges. Entanglements that feel complex and difficult, with problems or ideas that must be solved together. Challenges that require co-development across organizational boundaries. Examples of horizontal challenges are: sustainability problems, innovation work with many parties, business development or infrastructure projects, where more than collaboration is required.
CEO Invite TO DO
From entageled problems to structure, and action, in nine weeks. When municipalities, companies and authorities need to co-develop. We have specialized in entangled challenges. Entanglements that feel complex and difficult, with problems or ideas that must be solved together. Challenges that require co-development across organizational boundaries. Examples of horizontal challenges are: Agenda 2030, sustainability problems, innovation work with many parties, business development or infrastructure projects, where more than collaboration is required. Successfully solving complex problems with many parties involved requires good structures and good process work to build new common paths forward. We have a platform for solving entanglements.
