Innovation is important and needs to be planned, financed and managed. This is a complex process for many high tech start-ups and scale-ups, but certainly too for established companies, knowledge institutes and other (semi) public institutions and governments. The Future is the committed partner who supports parties to realize these innovations.

Below are some examples of successful initiatives and projects we worked on.
