Innovation doesnโt always come from the centre. Sometimes the strongest impulses arise from the autonomy of individual companies, provided there is the right platform to connect them.
At BRAINCONNECT Prague, we actively approach TTC companies to capture their long-term innovation visions. Through ๐๐ง๐ง๐จ๐ฏ๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐ ๐ซ๐ข๐๐๐ฒ๐ฌ and the ๐๐ง๐ง๐จ๐ฏ๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐๐ฆ๐๐ฎ๐ฅ๐๐ง๐๐, we create space for dialogue, inspiration, and mapping concrete needs.
We already see innovation emerging inside TTC, such as:
๐ฑ at TTC TELEPORT, ideas like reusing waste heat from data centres to grow microgreens,
โก at Mycroft Mind, development of next-generation energy intelligence technologies.
These cases show how innovation potential surfaces across the group and why it makes sense to identify, support, and further develop it systematically.

To see how such an approach might grow into a structured model, we can look at the BIND – Basque Open Innovation Platform in Spain. ๐๐ข๐ง๐๐ ๐๐๐๐, it has connected 250+ startups with 70+ corporates (from global giants like Siemens and Mercedes-Benz to regional leaders such as Grupo Mondragon) and launched ๐ฆ๐จ๐ซ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ง ๐๐๐ ๐ฉ๐ข๐ฅ๐จ๐ญ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐ฃ๐๐๐ญ๐ฌ. Each company keeps its autonomy, while the platform provides matchmaking, piloting, and knowledge-sharing.

Both Spain and the Czech Republic are ranked as Moderate Innovators. This shows that the Basque approach is not a distant ideal, but a realistic and relevant path for building open innovation culture in Czech business groups.
One promising direction is emerging: autonomy and collaboration can go hand in hand if there is a platform that connects the dots.
๐ฌ Do you sense there are interesting ideas inside your company, but no time to develop them? BRAIN CONNECT Prague can help you take them further.
