As 2023 draws to a close, we want to thank you for being a part of our mission at The Owls to foster innovation and breakthroughs as the cornerstones for a healthier and more peaceful and sustainable society. Together we look beyond short-term challenges to focus on creating sustainable change – now and in the future.

Through our services, we’ve once again seen the crucial role well-considered ideas and a well-defined vision play in the innovation process. It is crystal clear that understanding intermediate stations on the iterative route to impact is fundamental to succeed.

We are delighted that the two volumes of our book ‘Breakthrough: From Innovation to Impact’ reach a diverse global audience ranging from today’s changemakers to interested readers. To reach the widest possible audience, we make our publications free to download so that everyone can benefit from them.  

By applying our 9 principles of successful innovations and breakthroughs to our services within The Owls Breakthrough Method© organisations, educational institutions and governmental agencies are able to enhance the likelihood of achieving successful innovations.

As a result, we see our philosophy on the importance of innovation in tackling key social challenges reflected in initiatives inside and outside our network. We see that innovation thrives when given room to grow – space to create, experiment and learn. By combining an idea with knowledge, innovators can offer practicable solutions to complex social challenges.

We are convinced that anyone can be an innovator! Guided by our belief in the power of ongoing innovation, we have developed ideas for other activities within a different structure as an extension of our current activities. One of the important developments to emerge from this process is our decision as The Owls to give up the cooperative structure and continue within a different structure. While the structure is changing, our focus remains the same: to raise awareness of the importance of innovation for the next generation of innovators.

We look forward to continuing to join forces to take action and make a positive impact on society together - in 2024 and beyond. Happy holidays to you and yours!
