For Corporations

We define, validate, and execute the innovation strategy that drives P&L impact, de-risks adoption, and secures your competitive advantage.

Sounds different from standard innovation consulting?

Because we stay until the technology is running. We're your Strategic Implementation Arm. Let's talk.

Ways to work with us.

Strategy at one end, technology running in production at the other. Most engagements start at one of these three and carry on through the rest.

Strategic market research

For deciding where a market is heading before you commit budget to it. Where the technology actually sits today, who is buying it, and what is still a year away.

Strategic market research →
Opportunity mapping

For choosing which use cases to back first, and being able to defend that choice to a board. Scored against value, feasibility, and what your organization can absorb.

Opportunity mapping →
Execution and scaling

For getting from a shortlist to technology in production. Sourcing, validation, the pilot, and the procurement path, worked until it runs against a real process.

Execution and scaling →

Don't just take our word for it.

Governments, trade agencies, industrial groups, insurers, banks and defense organizations across 25+ countries scale and execute innovation with us.

What founders are saying.

Klabin's dedication to sustainable innovation has been enhanced through our collaboration with SOSA. By partnering with SOSA, we've identified the optimal partners for our initiatives.

Renata Freesz Pinto

Innovation Project Manager

We were very successful in finding five great companies. One proceeded to implementation, but we wound up with four more relationships, and even some of the other companies we saw have tech solutions that we will be using over the next few years.

Mitchell Weinstock

Partner

Their strategic insights and expert methodology in identifying emerging technologies have been instrumental in our quest to discover, map and connect with great tech solutions that have the potential to enhance our product offering.

Laura Alethia González Ramos

Open Innovation Director CG Americas

SOSA truly understands our innovation requirements and knows how to deliver solutions, no matter how complex the challenge or how quickly we need it. We have someone we can speak with at SOSA at all times.

Dr. Luca Marighetti

Former Group Head Tech Transformation

Innovation is about people, this is why we work with SOSA. This is a secret ingredient, the people. It's about taking small bets, on many different ventures along the way, some of them will change the world. It is about disruptive ideas which are always best incubated outside large organizations.

Emmanuel Lagarrigue

Chief Innovation Officer

SOSA is one of the best in open innovation in the world. The way they structure projects, understand client needs, and apply methodology gives any company an early advantage.

Daniel Moczydlower

President & CEO, Embraer-X, Head of Global Innovation Ecosystems

I have been through many innovation programs in my career… I found SOSA to be the best.

Philip Hsia

President, Global Travel Insurance

We are the implementation arm corporations trust.

Plenty of firms will hand you an innovation strategy. The hard part is the year after that, and it is the part we are built for.

We stay past the recommendation

We do not hand over a deck and leave. We stay until the technology is running against a real process, through the pilot, the integration, and the procurement path.

We know what is deployable now

We operate government centers and run startup expansion programs, so we know which companies are ready for a corporate rollout and which are still a year from it.

Measured on adoption

We are judged on what reaches a pilot and what reaches production, not on how many company names came back from the search.

Success Story: CSN and EnviCore.

CSN Inova, the innovation arm of one of Brazil's largest industrial groups, asked us to find technology that could cut carbon out of cement. We translated that into search criteria, found and validated EnviCore, and stayed in the room through to the investment.

How SOSA fast-tracked CSN's investment in EnviCore

SOSA's result-driven methodology made all the difference. They translated our challenges into search criteria, identified and validated EnviCore, and mediated the interaction from first contact to investment. This success case is a powerful example of what's possible when the right players come together.
