Social Labs

Innovation and Sustainable Business Development

Datasheet

Nowadays, innovation and sustainable business development can only be accomplished if the available knowledge and experience of all stakeholders is utilized. Horus Social Labs allow for such utilization through a well-structured, coordinated execution of necessary measures.

Horus Social Labs can be used for the analysis of business models as well as for the assessment of procedures and organizational structures. With an additional Social Lab in the course of the implementation of IT systems, the overall result is verifiably improved, specifically in terms of sustainability.

In times of globalization and the continuous availability of new technology, businesses are pressured to constantly supply innovation throughout all industries. Most businesses are already aware of which measures to take, but require the appropriate methods and tools to ensure the best possible further development.

Many projects suffer a lack of transparency in terms of context, performance, goals, strategies, key figures, and risks. The lack of a clearly defined roadmap and an insufficient number of stakeholders can make your employees feel left out and, in turn, cost your business much potential.
Horus Social Labs drastically increase the transparency within these projects and ensure a common roadmap as well as permanently motivated project participants.
