At Captains of Innovation, we enable our clients to create game-changing innovations and dedicated spaces for collaboration that propel them towards success. Our services are designed to meet the unique needs of all innovators: from corporate executives and innovation teams, to innovation district conveners, institutional leaders, and those looking to create new ventures. We strive to foster collaborative and actionable outcomes through our high-touch innovation services and custom offerings.

Corporate Innovation
We are operators who catalyze disruptive thinking, envision new strategies, and deliver high-impact outcomes. We want to support your organization's growth and ensure its longevity. Our services aid business leaders in engaging with the global innovation ecosystem, supporting them in developing a culture of innovation, and strengthening new and existing business streams. Captains leverages deep partnerships within the innovation community and a multidisciplinary network of entrepreneurs to form beneficial connections. Our ability to foster key connections allows us to identify new business streams and ideas for our clients. We shift mindsets, generate new ideas, and build toward the future through our strategy consulting and commercialization services.

Innovation Districts and Institutions
Large and robust institutions — universities, governments, and more — are often working at the forefront of future-focused change, but in highly structured environments that can feel antithetical to innovation. These institutions develop innovation strategies that look very different to corporate innovation, but are no less impactful.

We can support institutional leaders in building an innovative culture, facilitating diverse partnerships, and creating roadmaps for institutional evolution and growth. Captains of Innovation works with global innovation districts wherever they are in their journey, leveraging nearly 25 years of history within Kendall Square and other districts in the US and abroad. We focus on strategy consulting, programming, partnership development, and unique design services to aid in your overall mission. Our goal is to become your unbiased partner in innovation, creating thriving ecosystems and uniting groups of innovators. Learn more about our innovation district consulting here.
