InnoNetWorks
Connect the right people - boost your innovation!

Innovative organisations survive, even in times of crisis. An enormous innovation potential is hidden in people’s networks - innovation potential that is not always acknowledged, let alone used. Do you know your networks? And do you use them to boost innovation performance? We at InnoNetWorks help discover and restructure valuable networks.

What we help you accomplish

As your trusted innovation boosting partner, we give advice and help implement change scenarios based on a thorough understanding of how innovative knowledge flows in your organization. The social network insights we developed over the years constitute a solid basis to understand your people’s connections inside your organisation. We help keep your organization and people aligned with your strategy.

InnoNetWorks provides powerful tools and services to discover the favourable contacts and connections, to point to any network gaps, to optimize networks within your organisation (or among your peers) for sustainable innovation and to define innovation strategy accordingly. Our tools and services help your managers and leaders to discover not only contacts and connections, but also the redundant connection, the disconnected groups and individuals in the networks (gaps). By applying InnNetWorks outcomes, you can optimise your organisation’s networks and avoid unexpected failures. Thus, InnoNetWorks helps you to map formal and informal connection, optimize your networks for better innovation strategy, and prevent any network related failures.

Our work

Mid-sized to large, knowledge intensive (often high-tech) companies independent of their activities. Companies that are at the point of restructuring, for instance because they have grown rapidly, have had to downsize or have merged with another firm will have the most to benefit from InnoNetWorks tools and services. The geographical scope is focused on but not limited to Europe, and specifically BeNeLux and Germany.


SIEMENS

One of the companies we have successfully supported to improve its innovativeness is Siemens, particularly around the theme of ‘transport’. In order for you to experience hands-on what we at InnoNetWorks do and how we do it, we developed business game we invite you to experience. The Siemens business game gives you insights into both how the inner-workings of the innovation engine can readily shift gears up. Based on a social network analysis, we can suggest a number of different tools to further improve your firm’s innovativeness.

FORD

Once the biggest financial institute in the USA, Ford Credit's competitive edge derives from continuously constructing innovative financial models to capture developments in the market and offer customers financial products to cover costs of buying a Ford truck. Its teams of specialists are spread across continents, collaborating suboptimally. Using social network-insights, we supported Ford Credit to reach its innovation potential.

EQUENS

Equens, the innovative interbank clearing company, we supported twice. Once by designing and implementing a cost-effective and succesful strategy to boost innovation based on social network-based insights. Some time after, Equens approached us as it was instructed by HQ to drastically cut costs and thus staff, but feared doing so would risk having core innovative staff leave on their own initiative. Equens managed to stay innovative even in these dire times.

Ford Motor Company

"Wilfred Dolfsma (InnoNetWorks and Wageningen University) has helped my research department when I was at Ford Credit successfully integrate the researchers in its globally spread locations. Because collaboration became more effective, due to his advise and support we managed to increase the rate of innovation substantially."

Dr Nabil Raad, Global Executive Data Science @ General Motors (previously Director Enterprise Risk Management @ Ford Motor Company)

Siemens

"When I was heading the Innovation management department at Siemens Netherlands, I worked closely with Wilfred Dolfsma (InnoNetWorks & Wageningen University) to help stimulate innovation. His suggestions and advice were very helpful for Siemens to meet its goals! And they are still in my current role at Delft University of Technology."
