I would like to share what I’ve learned from Quantum4 about entrepreneurship in innovation:

1) innovation without methodology takes more time, more mistakes, and more costs.
2) innovation and fostering generate more knowledge, create a network of relationships, and mitigate likely errors.

Let's now break down what I’ve learned in each item above.

The innovation process has its own methodology, aiming to reduce the learning curve and make the project viable. In this process, we’ve learned to use hypothesis validation tests and the meaning of "fail fast!" The latter, a poetic license to try something that had not been tried, i.e. if you want to achieve a result that has never been achieved, do what has never been done, that is, try something different. Did it go wrong? Correct it and try again.

The innovation fostering process, on the other hand, goes far beyond simply innovating with non-refundable third-party resources and recovering any credits. It has to do with the network of relationships you create with the main science and technology institutes (ICT) in the country, boosting the generation of knowledge and mitigating risks.

Ultimately, without the work of Quantum4, the results of national and international expression, obtained in 2 years, would only be possible with approximately 15 years of lots of trial and error, according to our team. We’ve learned to resignify investment with Quantum4 consulting, because for us it is not about cost or investment, it goes much further, since it is an enormous capacity to generate value for the company making a classic health operator be noticed in the market as a Health Tech.
