Innovation and Industrial Projects

The pandemic and the scale of the subsequent crises the world has experienced have made one thing clear: external pressures are powerful drivers of a company's resilience, agility, and innovation.
Difficult times reveal a company's ability to adapt to profound changes and uncertainties.
Companies that want to exist tomorrow must develop and innovate in areas that guarantee greater flexibility, adaptability, and competitive advantage.

Innovation comes in many forms.
It may be prompted by the need to find new outlets in shrinking markets, to cope with sudden increases in raw material costs, to improve productivity and profitability, to make digital or environmental changes to meet customer expectations, or to combine an industrial approach with environmental responsibility.
The firm works alongside its clients to help them implement necessary changes and contribute to the effective protection of their innovations, whatever form they take.

- It also helps clients maximizing the value of their IP portfolio.

Digital transformations & Organizational Changes

The firm's expertise in this field stems from its extensive involvement in a series of structuring projects that have been instrumental in Daniel Dufag's professional development.
The firm's capabilities encompass a wide range of digital, technological, and organizational change projects, including the overhaul of internal IT tools (CRM, ERP, etc.), collaborative IT projects (workflow and SaaS platforms), and Industry 4.0.
