Voice of the Ecosystem™
Want to hear something new? Ask the ecosystem - not your customer.
Customers can't articulate the unarticulated - but the ecoystem can.
What we do
Voice of the Ecosystem
Are your customers giving you truly new insights? Often it takes a broader view – the Voice of the Ecosystem – to uncover needs, new opportunities or to vet innovation platforms. We talk to our network of over 3,000 ecosystem members – including Participants, Influencers and Observers of the markets and spaces of interest – providing insights on unarticulated needs, prioritization of opportunities, the right places to play and timing.
Consumer Insights
We use a range of qualitative insight tools but with a few twists. We pair up early and late adopters, explore unusual uses with unusual users and engage ecosystem members to uncover insights that lead to breakthrough innovation.
Opportunity Insights
Opportunities are a combination of market pull, tech push and trends. We gather insights into all three to provide a holistic view of the attractiveness / readiness of your opportunities.
Ecosystem Immersion
Overcome uncertainty & make decisions faster with Eco-immersion. Give decision-makers a chance to ask questions and creatively engage the ecosystem to stretch, shape, pressure-test and sequence opportunities.

CHALLENGES
Why are you not able to break free to see the unseen?
Constrained thinking
Customers and internally-focus for staff constrain you to incremental growth efforts within the core
Small opportunities
The initial view of opportunities is small and incorrectly sized because of a lack of creative insight and stretch
Uncertainty aversion
Organizations are not risk-averse, they are uncertainty averse, resisting small investments in unfamiliar places
