From the inception of the challenge to the triumphant crescendo of the Pitch Event, let’s delve into the intricate weave of the services and process steps that fuel innovation and propel sustainability forward.
🌟Creating a refreshing brand-infused haven for ideas
In the realm of innovation, standing out is paramount. A distinct idea management platform, coupled with a catchy name for your innovative community, and a captivating logo, serves as a rallying point that sparks curiosity and engagement. However, this dynamic identity shouldn’t overshadow an organization’s brand – rather, it should seamlessly integrate, reinforcing a sense of unity. This harmonious blend not only cultivates a sense of ownership within the innovation community but also bridges the gap between innovation and your organization’s unique identity, resulting in a compelling and cohesive experience.
This is where the elixir kicks in! We’re here to lend a hand in giving your online innovation community that standout factor, making it appealing to join whilst encouraging active participation!
🌱 Spotting the Sweet Spots
KPMG Belgium helps companies find the perfect spots for sustainable innovation that make both business and the planet happy. These topics are then transformed into well-defined innovation challenges, igniting inspiration and establishing accurate expectations for the kinds of ideas that are enthusiastically embraced.
Once these challenges are set, they kick off on the Yambla platform, and the right people are invited to jump in. We fire up their creativity and encourage them to share their unique ideas. The Yambla platform’s interactive features create a dynamic space where they can bounce ideas off each other, sparking collaboration and innovation in full swing.
🚀 Empowering Innovation Challenge Champions
At the heart of our approach lies the training of Innovation Challenge Champions – your dynamic guides during the Innovation Challenge. These champions are not only adept at assisting in the creative process but also serve as impassioned ambassadors for the challenge across your organization. Equipped with specialized training, they possess the knack for nurturing creativity, channeling fresh perspectives, and inspiring active participation. These champions are your partners in sparking engagement, guiding participants, and ensuring the challenge’s success resonates throughout every corner of your company.
🔊 Amplifying your Message & Crafting Connections
Communication plays a pivotal role throughout the Innovation Challenge. It starts with generating a buzz before the challenge even begins, creating an air of excitement and anticipation. As the challenge unfolds, communication maintains the momentum, keeping participants engaged and invested in the process. And once the challenge concludes, it transforms into a vessel for sharing success stories that inspire and celebrate the achievements of participants. This threefold approach to communication ensures that every phase of the Innovation Experience is energized, dynamic, and impactful.
By blending these well-crafted messages at key moments in the Yambla platform, we can automate communication. This smart integration ensures that everyone gets the right info at just the right time, keeping everyone on the same page and boosting engagement.
🔥 Crafting Innovation Pathways
Managing the innovation challenge involves a comprehensive orchestration of key elements. Our process starts with rallying participants onto the platform, creating a vibrant community of thinkers and doers. Through strategic engagement tactics, we prompt idea generation, encouraging participants to share their unique perspectives and creative solutions. But it doesn’t stop there – we go a step further by fostering enrichments. This involves refining and enhancing submitted ideas through collaboration, discussions, and feedback. This triad of activities ensures a seamless and dynamic flow of innovation, transforming initial concepts into polished, impactful solutions.
Teamed up with the Yambla idea management platform, this transparency adds a key element that makes everything more accessible, fostering organic idea enrichment.
💡 Igniting Creativity
Diving beyond the digital realm, our innovation approach extends to offline ideation sessions, a unique avenue to amplify creativity. These in-person gatherings foster an atmosphere of free-flowing ideas, encouraging participants to explore new angles and break free from conventional thinking. The benefits are two-fold: participants feel more connected and engaged, while their creativity is sparked by diverse interactions. Importantly, these sessions complement the digital interactions on our platform, infusing fresh energy into the idea management process.
By synergizing these offline sessions with the online idea management platform, we create a holistic innovation ecosystem that thrives on both digital convenience and in-person vibrancy.
🎯 Curating and Prioritizing Ideas
When it comes to evaluating and selecting ideas, we’re all about finding that sweet spot where innovation meets feasibility, viability and desirability, and whilst throwing in a dash of sustainability when it fits. The beauty of our approach lies in how we seamlessly integrate this process into the Idea Management Platform. This way, it’s totally impartial – no biases involved.
This not only ensures a level playing field but also brings out the best ideas, aligning innovation with your goals and delivering impactful outcomes. This approach not only refines ideas based on their true potential but also cultivates a transparent and inclusive atmosphere. Additionally, it enables you to engage reviewers.
🎤 Becoming Pitch Perfect

From providing pitch templates to honing their storytelling skills, we are their partners in ensuring their ideas are not only innovative but also captivatingly conveyed. These ideas deserve the spotlight, and we are here to make sure they steal the show.

🏆Elevating Innovators and their Ideas
Culminating the innovation journey is our grand Pitch Event, where the stage is set for your innovators and their ideas to shine. This is where innovation takes center stage as participants present their solutions with passion and flair. The Pitch Event isn’t just about showcasing ideas; it’s a celebration of creativity, dedication, and ingenuity.
