Inside the Innovation Huddle | November 2021

Squareat quattro-combo

Every week our team does an internal huddle where we share the most disruptive and interesting startups and emerging technologies from around the world. The only rule, is that they can’t directly solve a current client challenge. This way we retain our super-power of spotting creative adjacencies and disruptive outer-horizon solutions. I thought you might like a glimpse behind the VentureFuel curtain…
