Our Partners

  • Albert Berghof, CEO, Blanche Dael & Coffee Lovers

    With our business being the case in a strategic business challenge for MBA students, honestly all of the solutions added insights for our business and to our knowledge.

  • Filip Arnaut, R&D Director at Puratos

    The collaboration allowed us to reveal insights in the relevance and added value of our services. Resulting in concepts that will make our services approach more valuable and more differentiating.

  • Robert Viegen, Marketeer Obvion

    The approach helped us to focus on added value within a limited time frame. Validating the data and concepts with potential customers really made the difference. Using prototypes made things really come to live and more easy to accurately validate.
