Our Projects
Revolutionizing an International NGO
Guiding global growth through internal innovation. CRDF Global took the challenge posed by an international NGO head-on. The goal? To breathe new life into an organization as diverse as the world it serves. Our team meticulously charted a course that led to a tailor-made Innovation Strategy. But this was no ordinary plan – it was a roadmap to an Innovation Culture Transformation. We instigated a wave of change, inspiring over 200 employees to embrace a mindset of innovative thinking. Enter the Internal Innovation Acceleration Program, an initiative that spanned functions, equipping teams with the precise tools and methodologies they needed to innovate effectively. The result? A seismic shift in the NGO’s culture, fostering cross-functional collaboration and ushering in a new era of creative problem-solving. The organization’s capacity to generate and implement groundbreaking ideas skyrocketed, leaving a tangible mark of positive influence.
Empowering Tech Disruptors
Tech disruption is in our DNA at hea Global. When a tech accelerator sought to up its game and lure in VC funds, we knew just what to do. Our ingenious solution? The creation of an all-encompassing Investment Readiness Program that beckoned startups from every corner of the world. This wasn’t just about workshops and mentorship – it was about crafting an environment that nourished innovation. The influx of startups was electric, and VC funds took notice. Our program was a convergence of expertise and opportunity, fostering a nexus for tech pioneers. The results were resounding – startups armed with newfound readiness, VC funds with a pipeline of potential investments, and an ecosystem brimming with possibilities.
Forging Tomorrow's Boardroom Innovators
Leadership that doesn’t innovate risks stagnation. The Global Institute of Directors knew this, and so did we at HEA. Our Board Innovation Program became the bridge between traditional leadership and transformative change. Directors stepped into an immersive experience, equipping themselves with the tools to navigate, fund, and implement innovation. This wasn’t one-size-fits-all – it was tailored to sectors like financial services and insurance. The outcome? Directors who weren’t just equipped; they were empowered. They understood the strategic impact of innovation and became architects of change within their sectors. Growth, resilience, and adaptability became their hallmarks in an ever-evolving landscape.
Building a Multi-Million Innovation Award
Shoman Foundation sought to do more than give – it wanted to ignite innovation within the entrepreneurial sector. At HEA, we knew the challenge was as big as the heart behind it. We embarked on a journey to craft an Innovation Award worth $1.5 million, weaving together the threads of entrepreneurial spirit, investment readiness, and cutting-edge technology. This holistic approach wasn’t just about recognizing innovation – it was about cultivating it. The Innovation Award became more than a prize; it became a beacon, attracting startups, investors, and industry pioneers from all corners of the globe. The impact was undeniable – a flurry of attention, a surge of high-potential startups, and a transformation in the sector’s landscape. Funding flowed, growth accelerated, and innovation flourished.
Pioneering FMCG Innovation
In the world of fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), evolution is survival. When a global FMCG giant looked to consolidate its innovation strategies, HEA stepped in. Our solution was built on collaboration and cohesion. Through intensive workshops with the C-suite, we ignited collective thinking and planning. The result? A harmonized innovation strategy that unified disparate clusters under a singular vision. The impacts reverberated throughout the organization – a strategic realignment that led to focused initiatives, propelling growth, expanding markets, and securing a competitive edge in the industry.
