Experiences with ITONICS
"We are very happy that we now have a single platform that manages and gives fully visibility of our innovation portfolio across our 30 businesses.
The platform has been an integral part of the new innovation culture we are developing in our business and contributed greatly to cross pollination of ideas across businesses and has fostered a number of project collaborations that were not easily able to be identified prior to the Itonics Platform implementation."
Why the best innovators work with ITONICS
With KPMG Illuminate, powered by ITONICS, KPMG innovation leaders and teams worldwide can co-create innovative solutions and ideas together with their networks and ecosystems, driving value and growth for KPMG and its clients.

With ITONICS on our side we have developed a holistic, digital ecosystem for innovation and digitalization, offering user-intuitive project-, strategy- and portfolio views as well as innovation and trend scouting features.

The ITONICS Innovation OS supports us in scouting new technologies and products for our pipeline. The huge amounts of data generated in this process are easily searchable for the colleagues involved and can be supplemented and evaluated together.

Using a collaborative platform, we were able to implement the Innovate Everywhere Challenge as an integral part of our innovation management and engage a world-wide community to team up and innovate together. We achieved a Cisco-wide cultural change and created an interconnected network of innovators.

With the platform, we have created a cross-location innovation community. All employees now have the opportunity to submit ideas and trends, to participate in their realization and thus to shape the future of the company. The product gives thousands of employees in the company the opportunity to drive innovation.

Using ITONICS' AI-enabled platform, we aim to enhance strategic alignment across business units and preemptively develop rigorous capabilities, products, processes, technologies to continuously future-proof our business.

The ITONICS Innovation OS has become an integral part of the new innovation culture and is contributing to cross-pollination of pioneering growth opportunities at Fletcher Building.

Our biggest challenge was the connection and knowledge sharing between our employees and the establishment of a more integrated process. KSB reacted accordingly by breaking down traditional organizational structures partnering with the solution provider ITONICS.

The decisive factor for the success of our project was ITONICS' expertise in trend management. We were not just looking for a software partner, but for someone who is familiar with the topic and who we can trust.

Cisco operates in a world of increasing market volatility and globalization. With the Technology Radar we found a solution to effectively and efficiently manage novel technologies to maintain and enhance our competitive position.
