An Almacube coach conducting design thinking activities with company personnel.

We have the grreat opportunity to collaborate with companies and institutions. We cover a wide range of programs: from in-house innovation projects to international programs,  open events and customized coaching.

Discover the most suitable program for your organization through the matrix of knowledge origin and application.

The matrix is a tool to analyze and understand how knowledge is acquired and involved in different organizational contexts.

In the context of Open Innovation, the matrix can be helpful in understanding the source of knowledge and how it is used within the company to promote innovation.
