We design business models and growth strategies to be effective and competitive.

Sketchin Services, Strategy and business design - Strategic Foresight workshop moments

Through an in-depth knowledge of all industrial sectors and the application of approaches such as Design Thinking, Lean Strategy, Business Design and Strategic Foresight, we prepare organisations to welcome change, to be ready to evolve rapidly while remaining competitive in the market.

Anticipating the challenges of the future

We help companies discover new business models and opportunities, to continue achieving today's goals while designing strategies for tomorrow's successes. 

Companies must be able to cope with their own internal organisational and structural changes in order to respond strategically to the challenges presented by a changing market and society. They must be able to define the guidelines for growth-oriented change and the creation of lasting value. 

Driven by trend, insight and signal exploration, we develop future scenarios working on medium- to long term time frames. We help stakeholders interpret possible directions of change, assessing impacts and opportunities. We address complexity with a systemic and participatory design approach, to deliver effective, resilient and sustainable business solutions and growth strategies.

Our program

01.

Identifying and understanding the challenge

Each challenge is unique and requires a specific, tailor-made approach: we apply advanced techniques and agile methods to explore contexts, focus on goals, devise strategic solutions and shape new businesses to respond to changing markets.

Possible activities
  • Business model analysis
  • Trend, insight and signal exploration (horizon scanning)
  • Contextual and cross-industry exploration
  • Service ecosystem model mapping and definition
  • Business vision definition
  • Strategic goal definition

02.

Coordinating growth

We prioritise and plan the most effective strategies to implement identified solutions. We then integrate them in each context - physical, digital and hybrid - to ensure sustainable growth towards the desired future.

Possible activities
  • Business model innovation
  • Agile strategic planning and solution prioritization
  • Action roadmap definition
  • Actionable backlog definition

03.

Make it happen

Thanks to an agile design and prototyping approach, we rapidly put them into practice the selected strategies and validate them on an ongoing basis. We also empower the client to carry out the implementation and evolution of the strategy independently.

Possible activities
  • Business strategy lean experimentation
  • Business model agile validation
  • Team-as-a service and capacity building
  • Design team and method injection
  • Business unit (eg Operation, HR) support & knowledge sharing
