Veolia

Background and needs

As part of Veolia's 2023 Strategic Plan, which defines a program for engaging new businesses around 6 themes, the business innovation team is looking for a sparring partner to support and challenge them in detecting and accelerating new ambitious businesses.

Actions and deliverables

• Definition and selection of the right business case from Business Units
• Business model analysis
• Sourcing startups and technologies and connecting with the most relevant ones
• Benchmark of the corporate, industrial, regulatory ecosystem and connections with key players
• Assistance in the formalization of deliverables for the transition to the Innovation Committee

Results

Based on the general theme of creating new material loops, the objective was to explore this subject taking into account the feedback from Business Units, the “voice of the customer” and regulatory signals, in order to arrive at a project with high commercial potential for Veolia.

RaiseLab has identified commercial opportunities for Veolia in the field of textile recycling, in line with the needs of Business Units. RaiseLab first looked at a wide range of possibilities before focusing on one or more qualified and industrializable business cases.
