Provide access to technical resources
It is often the case that a new innovation will require expertise from multiple technology areas. Whilst this helps prevent competitors from copying your products, finding the right development team can be a challenge.
The ‘Open Innovation model’
Open innovation recognises that few companies have the in-house skills to develop all areas of an innovative idea. As such, it promotes collaboration, not isolation, as the best way to achieve your innovation goals.
For over a decade, Pera has been a leading advocate of the Open Innovation model. Over this time, Pera has created one of the largest scientific and engineering skills pools available in Europe. Our European Innovation Network has access to over 10,000 scientists and engineers from 65 institutes. This enables us to select the best possible combination of expertise for your needs, bringing them together into a team that is truly greater than the sum of its parts.
