In a sea of uncertainties, we want to show the way that will bring positive social change.

Process

To design a future-proof strategy, we have developed a three-stage process that leads from researching the signals and analyzing the change to developing concepts and guidelines on how to introduce innovation in your organization.

1. Horizon scanning

In the first stage, we look for the signals that inform us about possible changes that may take place in the future. Depending on the project, the scope and the sources of information may vary. We use direct and indirect data, including collaboration with industry experts and the scientific community.

2. Trend analysis

Analyzing the found signals allows us to determine the trends that drive the development direction of the area we are investigating. We look at the change from a broad perspective, including many different voices. Using quantitative and qualitative methods, we learn about the dynamics and how trends manifest and impact society and business.

3. Adaptation

How to translate content into specific solutions? In the last stage, we support organizations in the process of drafting an individual strategy and innovation plan. Together, we develop a new vision of development using futures thinking techniques. For us, the litmus test of the recommended solutions is the Sustainable Development Goals defined by the United Nations.

Who are we?

We are friends who have been inspiring each other for years. We created Busola Trends out of a passion for innovation by combining our experience in research and design. The company's core is our duo, but while working on projects, we like to collaborate and receive inspiration from experts in various fields.
