The costly cycle
of reinvention
Many organizations face the same problem: every few years, teams tackle identical projects without realizing their colleagues solved the same challenges previously. This constant reinvention wastes resources, extends innovation cycles, and frustrates your most talented people.
R&D teams often unknowingly repeat projects their colleagues did years earlier.
This happens because:
The Universe creates a persistent knowledge platform that:
Once you've identified promising paths from your Technology Overview, our Technology Intelligence phase helps you make informed decisions about which technologies truly meet your requirements.
Without proper knowledge management, your R&D teams are constantly climbing mountains that others have already scaled. The Universe shows you the complete landscape—what's been tried, what worked, what failed, and what's worth building upon.
The result? Faster innovation cycles, more efficient resource allocation, and continuous knowledge building that compounds over time.
“Findest helps you quickly grasp a new area that you’re not an expert in. Further, when you and a colleague are converging on similar research, you will see it early and work better together.”
