Innovation is more than an idea

We help you on your way to innovation by methodically generating, validating and implementing ideas.

What inspires us

We stand for successful innovation. We turn ideas into reality: As creators, inventors, planners, communicators and collaborators.

Innovative
products

Whether it is the use of new technologies or the expansion to additional use cases, we creatively support you in product innovation. Collaboratively and methodically, we find ideas, validate and implement them.

Sustainable
production

Responsible innovation needs calls for sustainable production. New production methods, sustainable materials, more efficiency in production - we support you in identifying the right technology and implementing it to achieve economic, ecological and/ or social sustainability.

Profitable
business models

Not only technologies are changing, but also how money is made. New payment models are emerging, data is being used as a source of revenue, products are flourishing in distant markets. Together with you, we identify the right approach to realise new value.

How we work

IDEA ENABLEMENT AS A SERVICE

[aɪˈdɪə ɪˈneɪblmənt æz ə ˈsɜːvɪs], neologism

The method-based finding and testing of ideas in collaboration with a third party. We are experts in academically validated methods for idea generation, validation and implementation. But every idea and every company are different. We find the right methods for your innovation challenge and accompany you all the way to your successful implementation.

IDEATE

Everything starts with an idea: Whether you already have an idea, or we start from scratch together, the methodical generation of relevant ideas forms the foundation of every innovation strategy. We work collaboratively on the continuous and iterative improvement of innovation potential.

VALIDATE

Good ideas alone are not enough. Even the best ideas often fail in implementation. That's why we validate ideas early and efficiently from a technical and economic perspective: prototypes, user tests, market research, pilot projects - we can identify problems early and minimize risks.

IMPLEMENT

How do you create value from a good idea? This requires, above all, successful implementation. The right team and methodical project and financial planning are crucial. We support you and help you to set up long-term value-creating project organizations, such as a corporate venture.

Creative, collaborative and efficient: With these companies we enabled innovation.

Prototyping PCR-DrySwab Automation

The laboratory Dr. Fenner was looking for a solution for the increased manual work in the analysis of COVID-19 dry swabs at the beginning of 2021. In a prototype project, we collaborated to design and manufacture a custom machine for automated dry swab washout.

Idea Validation Continuous PCR test

Together with Olfert Landt (former TIB MOLBIOL) we designed and manufactured a test setup for a continuous fully automated COVID-19 test station. The project was able to demonstrate that an economically viable PCR result for 10€ is possible in under 60 minutes with a continuous throughput of 60 samples per hour.

Idea Validation Medical Device

Olfert Landt

In cooperation with Olfert Landt we are currently working on the technical validation of an innovation in the field of automated human diagnostics. We generate ideas, validate through simulations, test setups and rapid / low-fidelity prototyping and produce functional prototypes.

This is us.
This is alstrio.

We are innovation partners and method experts, inventors, tinkerers, market researchers, testers, we iterate, question, discard, think and do, we have a passion for innovation, we are innovation enablers.
