What is the Blue Ocean Strategy and how does its innovation unlock new markets and business opportunities?

In BEAGLE, Blue Ocean Strategy facilitates the creation of new markets and value chains in areas that are currently untapped, creating opportunities for profitable and sustained long-term growth. We enhance collaboration among actors (academia-industry) that do not know each other and who would never meet without BEAGLE: connecting companies with technological centres and universities that are geographically and sectorally distant, without asking specific questions, looking for precisely what they know that they do not know.

This approach creates value through disruptive innovation rather than incremental improvements. Companies usually turn to the closest knowledge centres to resolve issues that allow them to continue competing in Red Oceans. BEAGLE proposes that companies innovate disruptively by promoting their collaboration with research institutions outside their usual sector and geography, looking for new Blue Oceans, creating entirely new products, services, and business opportunities with no or very low competition at the beginning of their market launch.

BEAGLE's 3-Phased Methodology and
Innovation funnel

Phase 1

Discover Opportunities: capturing industrial
innovation demands.

Phase 2

Co-Create Knowledge Valorisation: realizing alignment between
academic resources (innovation supply) and industrial demands.

Phase 3

Consolidate Knowledge Valorisation: consolidating knowledge valorisation
and formulating implementable A-I cooperation action plans.

Explore BEAGLE market niches!

Video-factsheets are simple, structured video presentations where researchers and industry professionals share their innovation ideas. In BEAGLE, 60 demand video-factsheets from companies to showcase their business innovation expectations and opportunities they want to explore, while 60 offer video-factsheets from universities that present research results that could create new market solutions. These videos are available in BEAGLE marketplace, where our expert Mixed Teams, composed of university technology transfer advisors and cluster managers, review and match the most promising academia-industry connections for creating new value chains and untapped market opportunities.
