AI workflow redesign
Map a high-friction workflow, test an assisted process with a bounded user group, evaluate risk and unit economics, then decide whether to integrate.
Case patterns
What useful innovation work can look like.
These are illustrative engagement patterns, not claims about named clients. They show how iSTEB would structure different kinds of challenges and what evidence should exist at the end.
Show the operating logic, not vanity metrics.
A credible case story explains the starting constraint, the experiment, the evidence and the decision that followed.
New growth platform
Reframe an adjacent-market thesis, validate demand with buyers, test the operating assumptions and choose between internal build, partnership or venture spin-out.
Service redesign
Use frontline evidence to identify failure points, prototype a simpler citizen journey, test policy and operational constraints and build the adoption path.
Commercialization pathway
Translate a research asset into user problems, screen markets, design validation experiments and decide what deserves licensing, venture creation or further R&D.
Innovation program
Create a challenge pipeline, recruit cross-sector teams, run a repeatable validation cadence and connect promising pilots to procurement, capital or scale partners.
Strategic reframe
Turn a broad transformation agenda into a small portfolio of falsifiable bets, assign owners and build a 90-day evidence plan.
