Building your capacity and capability to deliver your own virtual [ ] incubators
We've now successfully supported over 50+ teams through our virtual [ ] incubators. Each one, designed and facilitated by one person.
We've ran through a number of different permutations, with groups as well as one-to-ones, with individual founders as well as teams, with a coach mindset and a co-founder mindset, with different types of projects ranging from innovation to hiring, customer development to sales development.
Our learning in one sentence: It is possible to design a one-person-led (low-cost), virtual [innovation] incubator, supporting learning at scale (up to 16 teams at one time), and still have high impact.
If you're new to your role in managing innovation, or if you've developed a new strategy that needs testing, or if you have lots of ideas and lacking capacity to execute, or if you've got a failing new product or service that needs course correction, or you have a mentoring programme that needs structure and rigour, let's work together to co-design a virtual [ ] incubator
