Two doors for entering the ecosystem.

I have a problem, or I have an innovation. Each door has its own form — and if you do not know where to start, the MSME diagnostic gives you an honest read on your starting point.

I have a problem

Publish or share a challenge and find capabilities to solve it.

I have an innovation

Register your technology, product or capability and find challenges, partners and opportunities.

MSME diagnostic

You do not know where to start and want an honest read on your starting point.

Form 1

I have a problem

You do not need to know what the solution is. You need to describe the problem well, who suffers from it and when you have to decide.

Your organization
Who will follow up

A challenge without a person responsible for it rarely reaches the pilot stage.

The challenge

A sentence that anyone outside your organization can understand.

What happens today, how often, and why it is a problem. Minimum 60 characters.

If this were solved, which number would change, and by how much?

The current number. Examples: 20,000 m³ monthly · 40 hours a week · 15% waste.

The indicator that would show whether the pilot worked.

Knowing what did not work saves weeks for whoever tries to help you.

What you have available

Operational, technical, budgetary or time-related.

Scope and decision

The final level is agreed with you during validation. Your initial information remains private while it is being reviewed.

Consent

Form 2

I have an innovation

Technology, laboratory, equipment, research, methodology or applied experience. If it can solve someone else's problem, this is where it becomes visible.

Who is offering
What you are offering

Describe it from the customer's problem, not from the technology. Minimum 50 characters.

New customers or sectors, challenges to take part in, partners or distributors, capabilities you lack, integrating with another project…

Measurements, publications, tests or certifications.

Do not include customer names without their authorization.

Maturity and availability

Technology readiness level, from 1 to 9.

Human team, equipment, laboratory or facilities.

Contact and consent

Website of the organization, laboratory or research group.

Form 3 · Innovation Passport

Maturity diagnostic for MSMEs

Eleven dimensions, a scale from 1 to 5 and an honest read on your starting point. It takes about three minutes.

This is not a certification. The result is built from your own answers and is meant to guide you, not to certify anything to third parties. The Innovation Passport is an initiative in design.
Your company
Eleven dimensions

Answer based on what happens today, not what you would like to happen. The diagnostic is only useful if it is honest.
