our response

Defining and Optimizing Innovation

Dynergie launched this two-pronged strategic initiative at Orange Business.

First, we structured the innovation management framework, which included interviews with innovation leaders from major corporations and an in-depth benchmarking analysis to identify trends and best practices. This resulted in tailored recommendations for a customized innovation strategy.

Second, Dynergie focused on the "Customer Innovation Center" at the request of Orange Business. The approach included a detailed analysis of the needs of internal users. Workshops were organized to clearly define the center’s vision and organizational structure. Finally, a detailed restructuring plan was developed.

The results

Development of a White Paper on Innovation

Creation of a white paper summarizing the approaches, tools, and trends in innovation management at large companies.

Strategic Vision of the Innovation Center

Development of a clear vision and implementation plan for the Orange Business Innovation Center, highlighting its value and accessibility.

Plan for the Organization of the Innovation Center

Development of a strategic action plan to organize the innovation center, including a defined service catalog.

In conclusion.

Dynergie's two-phase approach has transformed the innovation structure at Orange Business, establishing a robust innovation department and a dynamic innovation center, thereby supporting innovative and sustainable growth.
