How is EarlyBirds helping?
The EarlyBirds Skill Identification Program is designed to help organizations find and retain top talent from the current pool. Managed by industry veterans with high credibility, this program delivers data-driven recommendations powered by AI, machine learning, and predictive analytics. By analysing necessary skill sets in detail, organisations can pinpoint individuals with the technical and managerial expertise needed to drive their growth.
EarlyBirds' Innovation Ecosystem fosters both innovation and strategic thinking across all business areas. This award-winning platform connects innovators, early adopters, and subject matter experts (SMEs) to accelerate the adoption of new technologies. Early adopters are keen to explore disruptive technologies and address business challenges, while the ecosystem's extensive data pool offers solutions that may already address specific organisational needs.
Ecosystem Maps from EarlyBirds provide valuable insights into startups, scaleups, and established companies involved in relevant themes. These maps help organisations navigate their innovation journey by highlighting companies that align with their needs. Additionally, the maps track global news and media articles, offering up-to-date information on industry developments.
The EarlyBirds Explorer Program is tailored for organisations needing innovation as a service to complement their existing programs or to conduct specific innovation projects. It features quarterly and monthly innovation days, regular webinars, a focus on various types of innovations, a platform enterprise license, and a dedicated SME to guide the process.
The Challenger Program addresses single organisational or technical challenges by identifying the most relevant innovators that meet specific criteria. An EarlyBirds SME leads this program, assessing key issues, searching the data pool for solutions, and curating options for further evaluation. The chosen solution is then developed into a detailed roadmap, including POCs, trials, or implementation steps.
