Who are we?

Customer Centric
Co-Creation is our
North Star.

The Ideas Project is an insights-driven strategic consultancy that works with brand teams across healthcare, consumer, and technology on domestic and global projects. Our aim is to truly understand the emotional and rational drivers of your customers, and place their voice and experience at the heart of new product planning and brand development.

Customer-Centric Co-Creation is our North Star. Whether working internally to bring clarity and consensus, externally to problem-solve, or in turning great insights into strategy, co-creation is the common thread in everything we do. It’s what empowers our clients to make truly customer-centric business decisions.

What makes us different?

Guided by the principles of customer-centric co-creation, we aim to bridge the gap between insights and strategy by bringing internal and external stakeholders together to build solutions. It is this focus and passion for collaborative learning and problem-solving that drives everything we do.

Above all it frames how we think about our project recommendations and next steps. We strive to inspire commercial teams to buy in to the customer centric strategy they co-create with their customers and take ownership implementing it.
Our aim is to make the leap to action more like a step.

Collaboration and problem solving is central to our insight generation process
Icon
We see our methodologies as opportunities to actively problem solve with your customers and not as passive question and answer sessions with respondent robots. It’s a subtle difference but one that changes the dynamic of how we approach insights generation and the outputs we provide
Icon
We look to build relationships with our participants, where we can really understand not just their rational but emotional needs and partner with them ‘in the moment’ to identify solutions that are truly customer centric

We want to tale our deliverables further than static PowerPoint, delivering engaging and creative outputs that inspire interest and excitement, standing the test of time
