Venture Building

Sustainable Products and Services Within Six Months

We employ our unique ability to develop or scout new, sustainable product ideas. We do this in co-creation with your organization, with sustainability and circularity as our starting point. Current, polluting product lines make way for new, greener alternatives. With our proven approach, we create sustainable products and services within six months that are fully circular or CO2-neutral. This way, your organization remains relevant for people, planet, and profit, now and in the future. 

Experiences:

CO2-Positive Products for a Green Enterprise

Our Planet Proof research and advisory experience has identified the urgent need for companies to develop new, CO2-positive products and services. The approach to building green enterprises has emerged from our experience in building ventures, applied to the sustainability domain, and developed from more than 100 frontrunner interviews. 

Innovation Monitor for Green Venture Building

We use the Innovation Monitor to get a snapshot of your innovation capabilities in 10 key domains. This immediately gives direction to the development of successful green enterprises. From purpose to action: making a positive impact. 

Assembling a Green Venture Team

Cherry-picking, or in other words: we have selected the best practices from various proven methods, theories, and experiences. This has resulted in a unique model consisting of 5 phases.

NLMTDVENTURES

1

Define

We determine how we will measure the success of the green enterprise, the process, and our teams at the level of climate risk, CO2 emissions, energy consumption, etc. 

2

Analyze

We make an initial analysis of the idea, the market, and use cases to shape the validation phase. 

3

Validate

We experiment to test the riskiest assumptions while continuously coming up with and iterating new ideas.

4

Pilot

The idea is converted into an MVP (minimum viable product). The first, actual, real-life product – ready for customers. 

5

Scale

Once the MVP has proven itself in the market, we use our strategy background to scale up. A successful product is not necessarily a successful business: we decide whether to grow as a startup (spin-off), join forces (JV) with a partner, or integrate into the existing business (integration).
