Anonymized R&D, production and market needs from leading companies, so startups and SMEs can judge whether to propose a solution.
This site is continuously updated.
Each entry in the directory shows only the industry, need type and a short description. Company names are withheld. To learn more, request a referral through the form; we confirm interest on both sides first.
Three pillars of the solving process
Cross-domain integration
A cross-domain team clarifies the problem, pools resources and proposes a workable solution.
Whole-chain delivery
One track from understanding the need and shaping a concept to joint development and market validation.
Specialist resources
Links to research institutions and advisors, building a network for co-creation, co-research and shared prosperity.
Four steps from challenge to solution
Submit the need
Complete the request form and a coordinator will be in touch.
Focus the scope
Work with the company to sharpen the need and define the challenge.
Connect suppliers and resources
For challenges posed by larger companies: supplier selection, a Chairman & CEO Roundtable and one-to-one talks, then POC/POB validation.
Deliver and contract
Approved suppliers sign contracts under the applicable rules.

About this data
The needs directory will be published once companies agree. The challenge-and-solution process is taken from the National Innovation and Entrepreneurship Association’s existing website. No listing is a recommendation or endorsement, and no referral or partnership is guaranteed.
