Innovation
as a Service

Marcin Dąbrowski

Chief Innovation Officer

Innovation is a creative idea developed into an even greater products, services or processes to make a meaningful impact in the market or society.

Invite ITMAGINATION's Innovation as a Service to your company to help you generate ideas, transform them into actual working products and accelerate your business.

Think of Innovation as a Service as working in an agile “Startup Mode” – but without being or buying a startup. By doing so, you give your employees and your customers the best of both worlds – the freedom to break down barriers and think outside the box, but in a stable environment that’s supported by ITMAGINATION’s proven processes and experience.

Large institutions are conservative by nature.

They tend to:

Maintain a strong focus on stability
Engage in predictable patterns of business
Require that their employees believe in and follow a strict set of rules for running the business
Aim for a stabilized IT environment

Meanwhile, innovations:

Are all about disruption and out-of-the-box thinking
Challenge and negate current business models
Are delivered by agile, interdisciplinary teams with one strategic goal
Focus on the rapid product development and short time to market
