Activities

1) Is there a way to create a movement that goes beyond hipsters / trend followers or
even vegans/vegetarians into something that impacts a wide number of people ā e.g.
at lower middle class or mainstream consumer?
2) What can industry do to create a greater demand for sustainable nutrition food
products ā for instance that facilitate the consumption of meals with less/no meat
that are found in āordinaryā supermarkets, that are regularly eaten and not only for
niche, special, premium, once-off products?
3) What kind of benefits can be used to motivate consumers to make switches to more
sustainable nutrition, e.g. more plant-based eating, or meat alternatives or reduced
amount of meat? We are interested in benefits that are technically feasible and have
minimum impact on profitability.
4) How important is it to communicate environment, social or health benefits to
motivate consumers to move to more sustainable diets, such as more plant-based
products or less/no meat?
5) What role can social media play to support this switch and how can the industry use
this in a credible and motivating way?What kind of partnerships with the industry will
help drive consumer change towards sustainable nutrition, such as more plant-based
diets?
⢠Add dimension to our understanding of how Private companies may be similar/different from Public companies
⢠Priority Map Question: What are the most critical opportunities *private companies should be investing in to be relevant in the next 3-5 years? (vs. Public?)
⢠Persona; Pain points? what influences him? What does he want in a consultancy?
⢠Purchase journey ā what skills do they seek when evaluating a new professional services firm
⢠Thoughts/reactions to Grant Thornton existing communications
We've brought together a range of target perspectives from NA commercial and industrial companies - including Chief Sustainability Officers, CFOs, COOs, Facility executives, and Energy/Utility Managers - to better understand their challenges.
2. Do consumers understand sustainable nutrition concept and will this influence what and how they eat
3. Future of fermentation and fermented foods
By merging their combined portfolios of both flavoring and condiments, the client would like to understand how the merger can be leveraged to bring new innovation concepts to market. (Aiming to launch this Design Sprint next week).










Definition: Technology Process Innovation is the adoption of technologically new or significantly improved production methods, including methods of product delivery. These methods may involve changes in equipment, or production organization, or a combination of these changes, and may be derived from the use of new knowledge. The methods may be intended to produce or deliver technologically new or improved products (= goods or services), which cannot be produced or delivered using conventional production methods, or essentially to increase the production or delivery efficiency of existing products.
