2. What is SUNN?
SUNN is a process of discovering competitive
innovation; it is also a matching system and a
collaborative workflow between all the agents of an
innovation system: R&D Groups, StartUps, Enterprises
and Venture Capital Funds.
As a process, SUNN can connect industrial capabilities
with the most exciting emerging technologies in the
world. Technologies that traditional databases, email,
personal contacts and business intelligence tools often
fail to discover. It will open up a world of possibilities to
raise your competitive advantage like nothing else can.
SUNN is based on Innovation, grouped into five
Ecosystems, where the core competences of
industries, innovation demands, and disruptive key
technologies interact in real time.
Nowadays there are various resources related to the
connection of the different agents operating in the
innovation system, but they are currently fragmented
and inefficiently distributed.
The connection between innovation demand and
supply is complex, lengthy and costly for the agents
involved.
On the one hand, there are large industrial corporations
that need to integrate innovations into their production
processes as a clear strategy for international
competitiveness. On the other hand, there is a large
concentration of innovators looking to continue
growing their profits.
SUNN is created under these premises as the first
innovation discovery engine.
SUNN (StartUp Neural Network) meets the following
objectives:
To discover innovation based on current industrial
capabilities and access to worldwide ecosystems of
emerging technologies.
To connect the innovation need of each ecosystem
agent: Startups, Enterprises, Research Groups and
Venture Capital Funds.
To launch cooperation workflows (investment,
research collaboration, commercialization or
technology vigilance) directly with startups or
sources of innovation in the international markets.
“To let the world watch you,” transmitting innovation
signals through the implementation of Innosensors and
discover the power of the open innovation strategies.
In an increasingly competitive market, to discover the sources of breakthrough
innovation is a real competitive advantage, and the only way to compete in local
or global markets.
