Eureka! Client List
| | Industrial Strength Consulting in Accelerating Profitable Growth Eureka! Inventing is a no-hold’s barred innovation acceleration system. It’s been our flagship offering since our founding in 1986. It’s so unique and effective it’s been the subject of feature stories on DATELINE NBC, CBC, CNBC, ABC, NPR, The Wall Street Journal, NY Times, Inc Magazine, CIO Magazine, and CBC Venture. Three things make it stand out from other market research companies and innovation consultants. - We are so passionate about innovation we invest our own time & money in it. Unlike other innovation consultants and researchers who “preach but don’t practice” innovation - we walk the talk. Over the past year we’ve invested over $20 million in real money in the development of more effective tools for finding, filtering and fast tracking ideas. The impacts are dramatic: - our current ideation process is quantitatively 35 times more effective than our original 1986 system. Our current innovation research system costs costs 80% less and can be run in 10% of the time. Our current process for helping companies fast track ideas to market is 10 times faster and cheaper than classic development approaches.
- Development of COMPLETE Innovation Solutions: From the start, we have focused on the creation of complete solutions. This means simultaneously optimizing the competing needs and issues with customer/consumer insights, technology & manufacturing capability and the all important bottom line costs of capital, investment requirements, market pricing and profit margin.
- We Tell the Truth: If there’s one thing that we are most proud of is our reputation as truth tellers. Having written and tested more innovations than any other company in the world - we have a sixth sense for what works and what doesn’t. As such, we feel we have a responsibility to tell clients the truth no matter how painful it may be. Unlike researchers that recruit samples that are more likely to give positive results or consultants who avoid confronting executional death threats we confront the issues up front - when their is still the time, energy and money to make meaningful changes. Our “truth telling” flows from our founder’s personal view of the world - you can see examples of him sharing it on this example from CBC Venture.
