From insights to ready-made innovations. Innovation Groups is a workshop-based INQUIRY method that allows you to turn research findings into concrete ideas for new products and improvements in just a few hours. It brings together the perspectives of consumers and the brand team to arrive more quickly at solutions that really make sense.
That amount of time spent working together is enough to turn insights into tangible products
Workshops that put an end to uncertainty
Insights that drive innovation.
Your company has a backlog of research reports, your staff are brimming with ideas, and yet key trends remain disconnected from your product category. Instead of ready-made plans, you have questions: how do you translate observations and ideas into products that the market will want? Standard research methods take too long, and you need quick and precise decisions on what to do about this here and now.
During Innovation Groups, consumers work with your team to translate broad insights into concrete, realistic product concepts that you can implement straight away.
In the space of a single day, you move from insights to decisions โ working alongside your team and consumers around the same table. A tried-and-tested process brings order to the chaos of information and helps you identify what truly has market potential.
This method involves the team in developing solutions, rather than trying to convince them of them after the fact. It may well be the quickest route to a new product in the portfolio.
By the end of the workshop, youโll have ready-made concepts for products or services that you can test and develop straight away.

What Innovation Groups are all about is getting down to specifics
The Innovation Groups process brings order to the chaos caused by information overload โ from selecting insights for testing and gathering consumer perspectives, through rapid iterations, to a clear plan for next steps at the end.
A clear structure and process that guarantee results
Innovation Groups are large-scale workshops with a tried-and-tested format. They bring consumers and brand staff together in a single room, working in small, organised teams. They share a common goal: to identify specific insights and translate them into solutions that benefit the brand.
A concrete, ready-to-implement result
Instead of general reports, you receive ready-made concepts for products or improvements. These are clearly formulated, containing a functional description, specific benefits and a target audience, which allows them to be immediately submitted for assessment of market potential and implementation.
Specific plans for further implementation work
We donโt just end the workshops with descriptions of the concepts. We sit down with the brandโs team and draw up a plan for whatโs to happen next with the solutions weโve developed. Because weโve seen time and again how the best concepts have been lost in the abyss of a drawer…
A dynamic study.
Meaningful results.
