Innovations for tomorrow and beyond
For us, innovation means translating promising projects into sustainable business success.
What we do
Through a systematic process, we discover areas of innovation and technologies, develop opportunities and work together to create the best solutions for the future. The result can be an innovative business model, a startup, a product or a service. This ensures that PostFinance does not miss out on any relevant future topics.
Foresight
This phase is designed to inspire and explore signals, trends and technologies. The aim of the foresight phase is to outline new areas of innovation from which opportunities for the company can be identified.
Innovate & Grow
Innovate & Grow is used for rapid validation on the market. The aim is to gain an insight into feasibility and customers’ needs (prototyping and testing).
Operate
What is the best approach for each project? Will it be a PostFinance service or a third-party product? Is it best to found a startup or collaborate with an existing startup? The final phase of the VNTR process focuses on transferring the solution within or outside the organization.
