Through targeted workshops, S2 Innovation guides teams in translating unmet needs into operational reality, bridging strategy with execution.. We specialize in challenge framing (as a “how might we?” question), rapid prototyping, and opportunity mapping that accelerates execution and multiplies value. By the end of the workshop, clients have an implementable solution to their unmet need.

The S2 Innovation model is structured to deliver strategic value, scalability, and powerful ROI solutions, whether through immersive workshops or tailored consulting engagements.
Our framework enables global deployment, partner alignment, and measurable transformation across sectors.

The S2 Innovation framework is an experiential design thinking workshop followed by strategic consulting to support leaders. The participant’s organization will pose a “how might we” question, which is a critical unmet need that the organization wants to solve. Participants will be placed into small, interdisciplinary teams, and will immediately apply knowledge after each of our workshop's interactive lectures to shape their innovative solutions. They will define their needs, explore, prototype, and refine creative solutions to the "how might we" question. By the end of the workshop, each team will have a unique solution that addresses their organization’s “how might we?” question, aligns with its goals and unmet needs, and can move forward into implementation with S2 support.

Post-Workshop Consulting and Implementation Support ensures that breakthrough ideas evolve into scalable, real-world solutions. S2 Innovation’s implementation workshops and consulting services guide teams through structured execution pathways, translating top concepts into operational pilots, prototypes, and transformation initiatives. Leadership empowerment programs build internal innovation capability, equipping executives and cross-functional teams with the tools, mindsets, and governance models to lead change from within. Specialized extensions provide targeted depth across clinical strategy, IP, due diligence and strategic fit analysis, positioning and differentiation strategy, post-acquisition value creation strategy, AI implementation strategy, and “Train the Trainer” programs—enabling organizations to scale innovation sustainably and strategically.

S2 Innovation offers a portfolio of modular, high-impact workshops that accelerate innovation, align stakeholders, and translate strategy into execution. Each format is designed for speed, adaptability, and measurable outcomes, enabling clients to activate transformation across functions, geographies, and unmet needs. Below are a few of the format we offer.
