Speed, Innovation & Leadership in HighTech Hardware Product Development

In a world of growing complexity Speed, innovation and Leadership are of utmost importance.

Especially start-ups show us how to differentiate from standard ways of working and to speed-up innovations. They aren’t hampered by procedures, management structures or complex scenario evaluations but follow their ambition with a lot of unconstrained energy. They realize their dreams without any roadblocks, they just go!  As Nike already said in the nineties: “Just do it!”. This is what makes working with start-ups so attractive. They take the lead in new developments and are an example for corporates on how to speed-up innovation.

On the other hand access to technology, infrastructure and facilities of corporates is of utmost value to start-ups. And that’s the reason why we bring them together in start-up centers as Blue Innovation Center in Venlo or HighTechXL Plaza at the High Tech Campus in Eindhoven. Both ecosystems for start-ups are based on open innovation in practice! This is where we organize networking events as “HighTech meets Design” and “Drinks, Pitches and Demo’s”. Organised each first Wednesday of the month from 17:00 onwards, free entrance, free drinks and the opportunity to pitch your idea or product to an audience of around 30-60 people. Getting free feedback, support, valuable network contacts or even finding the investor for your new company!

And our next step the “Start-up & Innovation Square” at the Hannover Messe, the biggest industrial trade fair in the world, and a unique possibility to present your product to a global market and increase your network even when in the Dutch supply-chain!
Together with Prince Constantijn van Oranje, special Envoy of Startup Delta, we will bring 38 start-ups to the Hannover Messe from 24 until 28 April. For the third time we are organising the Start-up & Innovation square (Hal 4 C52) at the Hannover Messe and now for the first time including the “Meet the Industry Giants”. A unique chance to connect the Dutch and German eco-system and take the lead in the Champions League of HighTech!A joint initiative by the Dutch StartupDelta, FME, Ministry of Economic and External Affairs, Dutch Embassy in Berlin, RVO, NWO, 4TU, Brainport, HighTechCampus, HighTechXL and EY and German Young Tech Enterprises from Hannover Messe and StartBahn Dresden. The Ministry of Economic and External Affairs by RVO, High Tech Campus, Province of Brabant and LIOF have made it possible to organise this vast representation from the Netherlands and operate as one team!
And that’s what makes it great: together we represent the Netherlands as The Place to be for HighTech Hardware innovations!

In this blog you frequently find the word “ together” . That’s important for me and our professionals at Holland Innovative. Together we can move mountains and that’s how we also work during projects. With our experts in project management, robust design, reliability and root-cause-analysis we strengthen teams for our customers.  We support start-ups with key knowledge, experience and methodology, learn about their enthusiasm and ways to speed-up innovations.

Together we can make successful connections, lead the way to experts, have access to key-technology and generate success.

Just do it!
