We organize spark and pitch sessions, hackathons and accelerator programs. What makes us unique is our entrepreneurial spirit. We give you access to leading cybersecurity, blockchain and 5G knowledge and services.

Spark Session An intense executive board session in which we’ll take your company through the risks and opportunities of hot topics like 5G, cybersecurity and blockchain. We discuss your strategic innovation agenda, identify the sparks that need attention. Together we create plans for the future and help you take the first step, today.

Fire Pitch There are opportunities in every organization. Sometimes hidden in people's minds, sometimes out in the open. The Firestarters help you identify these opportunities and present them during a blazing pitch event. Ideas that are worth exploring will be selected and will be given the right accelerant during our corporate accelerator program.

Hackathons We organize hackathons where we match industries with the world’s most promising startups and innovations on 5G, cybersafety and blockchain. It’s where potential customers, investors and investment opportunities come together.
