Transformation - an intensive process

At the beginning of every transformation process there is an analysis phase with the identification of challenges and opportunities (SWOT and trend analysis). Based on the results of the analysis, the creative services that have the greatest leverage for the topic, industry or challenge are then identified and the appropriate creative professionals are specifically sought and selected. To ensure that not only the participating companies but also entire industries, the economy and society can benefit from these processes, we summarize all suggestions, ideas and findings from the open innovation process with the creative industries in a Guide together.
