Innovation
After a decade or so of doing eco-design and sustainability work I was invited to be part of an innovation/ideation activity for a big client. I loved it, it was like being a kid again, coming up with future ideas. So I started doing it myself.
We are all creative. Creativity is simply imaging a world that hasn’t arrived yet. Innovation is bringing this new world to life. Although counter-intuitive there are a number of processes and practices that you can employee to guarantee greater levels of innovation, to build a culture of innovation and a culture of curiosity. We’ve been doing this for 14 years.
Having ideas and breathing life into them is the core of enterprise. Having good ideas is part of it and there are methods that make this easier. But the real magic sits in execution. We know that and we help with the ideas and the delivery.

Innovation workshops
We run sparkling innovation workshops. These can be narrowly focused or wide, short-term or far-out. We build lively and engaging workshops and we’ve done this and launched new products and services for Coca-Cola, Samsung, Belkin, RS Components, Pasta King and loads of smaller businesses.
Product development.
The key here is developing the right product and this sits in deep insight. What does the world need right now and what are you uniquely positioned to bring to life. We help with product development by applying start-up thinking and sprint approaches or incremental improvement.
Product testing.
We have never been able to test products faster or cheaper. Yet we often don’t, or don’t do it well. We start with a result in mind. We need to be like water and be fluid rather than fixed here. We test physical or digital products and services with your core and your tangential markets.
Start-up development.
We have been support and advising start-up for 15 years. Some of those companies are quite big now. Mark has supported companies including Propercorn, All Plants, Black Horse Lane Atelier, and Seedlip.
