In an ever-changing, increasingly connected and digitized world, to remain competitive and to stay relevant, continuous business innovation is essential, no matter your industry. It would be naive to assume that innovations happen by change at random. If you want to be innovative, you need an independent workspace environment that allows to experiment with new ideas and to design new business models outside of usual corporate structures. This understanding lead in 2014 to the foundation of Synolon, an independent business model innovation factory associated with the DEVnet ecosystem.
