Launchpad
Need a new product, service, app, system, process, workflow, or marketing campaign? No prob. Ni2 LAUNCHPAD guides you through hurdles 1-12 so you can launch in 100 days or less. Ooops, I need ideas…
Check this box if you are a GUILDER (i.e., I'm in college or just graduated in the last 12 months) before clicking the blue button.
RONA
We see this time and again, one of the biggest opportunities (especially in pandemic!) to grow business to the next level. Rona makes customer jewelry, a luxury that took a pandemic hit as customers shifted to home-based behaviors. No problem – we took Rona on a quick blitz of Ni2 Launchpad hurdles 1-5, out of the “product box” and into the broader “storytelling box”. What are we really selling that customers are really buying? Turns out Rona’s creations have uniquely powerful stories (e.g., exotic materials from indigenous tribes, earth-friendly practices, etc) – stories that can defy even a pandemic to grow customer demand in Rona’s US markets.
CURT
How do you launch a product or service, especially when you’re still in school or recently graduated? Curt, a sophomore and aspiring entrepreneur, is faced with this challenge. During The Jumpstart, Curt was exposed to Ni2’s Launchpad – a step-by-step guide that anyone can use to launch their own products or services. He was also encouraged to form a team aligned with a shared mission, because collaboration needs a diversity of minds and skills that align with the team’s shared mission. This is key to building a solid team and foundation, and that can be discovered by reflecting on their GPS. While Curt and his teammates find their personal Genius, Purpose, & Service and align them with a shared mission, Curt now has a foundation and the tools to finally start and launch his product! Stay tuned on how Curt & Co. progresses with Ni2!
JOJO & CO
CEO of Concepcion Industrial Corp, a 60 year old public company whose products are in millions of Filipino homes, leads the launch of Concepcion Peak Performance, an Ni2-powered 3-in-1 accelerator. First of all, CPP builds on the Live @ Ni2 platform to run its Market Accelerator for the Future of Home Experiences. CPP also uses Ni2’s open collaboration platform in order to run its Workforce & Career Accelerator for its highest potential employees and Partner Accelerator for preferred dealers, distributors, and other partners and SMEs.
DANNI
Sometimes they come to us with a cape and superpowers already – but that just makes it all the more gratifying and promising when we win them over! Danni is still an undergrad and student leader, but she has already assumed major leadership roles in the real world of work. Wanting to accelerate her next level, Danni is now leading critical market sprints via Launchpad and #FutureOfWork BTL Cycles with fellow Ni2 Innovators-in-Residence.
KHALIL, CJ, & ISA
Jim Collins sold 4 million copies of the his global #1 bestseller Good to Great – and one of the reasons was his Flywheel Effect. How do you create rapid-accelerating and self-sustaining virtuous cycles that keep winning customers, revenues, profits and sustainable competitive advantage? That’s what Kahlil, CJ and Isa are working on: a flywheel of iconic online experiences, content creation, social media and CRM – especially tailored for the much-neglected needs of SMEs. The 3 join a growing list of Guilders who are graduating into high-impact work as Ni2 Innovators-in-Residence whose BFFs are Launchpad Hurdles 1-12 and #FutureOfWork‘s weekly BTL cycles!
ERICA
Mental health issues have been further aggravated by the effects of the pandemic – this reality pained Erica, a graduating Psychology major from Polytechnic University, so much that she decided to do something to help. But where and how does she start? That was the main challenge she brought up during Agile Hours, and she received some very helpful advice from the community, even gaining some supporters from the audience who wanted to join her in her mission! Erica realized that she needed to focus more on those who struggle with mental health as opposed to focusing on the product or solution that would help them. She is now set on using Launchpad and its Hurdles to discover the true needs, pains, and wants of people who struggle with mental health issues.
MJ
Still very much in college, but that hasn’t stopped MJ from being a hardcore Ni2 Guilder and blitzing the Ni2 Launchpad en route to launching his new digital ID app. He credits LP Hurdles 1-5 with his game-changing pivot to focus on HR pains (and forget all other customer segments for now). Using The Empathy Project App that comes with Launchpad, MJ took customer-centricity to a whole new level by getting to know his customers, not just as business transactions, but as whole human beings. He’s now reaching out to national HR groups to blitz LP Hurdles 6-10, with a view to co-creating with them in his eventual sprint to launch. While MJ is mastering Ni2 Launchpad, he’s also mastering the Ni2 Superpower-6 that will allow him to launch again and again and again.
ANALISA
One of our most avid supporters and a recent addition to our Ni2 Global Advisory Board, Analisa has destoryed every box that has tried to contain her mission to prove that women can make it anywhere. From Leyte, to public school in Makati, onto full scholarships in Philipine Science High School, Mt Holyoke and Harvard Business School, onto the fast-track in Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, Microsoft, NASA and the UN, Analisa now has her sights on a homecoming – to bring her global organization Womensphere to re-shape the future of women in the Philippines. With Womensphere’s focus on economic empowerment and innovation, we share many intersections with Analisa and look forward to groundbreaking collaborations. Stay tuned for Ni2 x Womensphere innovations via Launchpad!
KIM
A 2017 Industrial Design graduate of Benilde, Kim traveled the world and flourished in PAL as a flight attendant – until COVID struck and took her on a life-changing detour into Ni2! As pandemic hit and she was retrenched along with 2,000 other PALers, Kim joined Ni2’s 100-Day Career Accelerator in Feb 2021. Within Week 1, she assembled a 4-person team with old friends Ally, Clark and Tita Joana! Christened as Team Bridges, their crash course on innovation saw them launch a series of bridge programs to help retrenched professionals, especially in the travel industry. Launching innovations in 30 to 60-day cycles, Kim also found her bearings and with renewed confidence, has decided to launch her own startup – a long-postponed dream shared with her BFF to offer millenials environmentally-sustainable skin care products! Kim recently shared her startup journey in The Agile Hour.
ELAINE
Social media strategist turned life coach, who helps career professionals in fields as diverse as social media consulting (of course), financial planning and entrepreneurship. Business is booming for Elaine especially in the pandemic, but recently she took a 2-month break to re-focus how she positions her diverse offerings. Of her Ni2 experience: “Even if I know what I’m doing, iba pa din yun may guide that helps me in the right direction”, referring to our unique mix of the Ni2 app (GPS, Launchpad) as a DIY guide plus a real person helping you live (The Agile Hour).
JOANA
20-year veteran of global travel industry fears no boundaries, dares to continuously expand her horizons with Ni2. Today she has reinvented her career in the field of innovation – an unlikely destination if you’d asked her 2 years ago. Most recently Joana is teaming up with college Guilders Josh (FEU), Jolina, and Glaiza (University of Makati) to launch Peak Experiences catering to millennials who are starting their careers and need to be mindful of mental health and overall wellness.
MIGUEL
Stanford D-School and IDEO come to 200+ colleges and LGUs in the Philippines. That’s the pedigree Migs brings in the field of Human-Centered Design Thinking and Agile Innovation, which forms much of the methods of Ni2 Launchpad, #FutureOfWork, Superpower-6. Add to that Migs’ many years as a favored consultant of many of the country’s biggest and most innovative corporations, plus his own family startups like Aranaz and Felipe & Sons, and you’d have to be as excited as we are that Migs will be co-piloting many of our Ni2 Daily Flights, where we do live on-air mentoring of our community of practice, many of whom will be joining us from corporations, SMEs, schools and LGUs across our 7,100 islands!
KATH
Kath, a 4th year Marketing Management student from the University of Makati, is a Guilder who is inspired to step out of her box – how? She created a Launchpad to solve a problem that she and many others experience so often – reliable internet connection, especially in the provincial areas of the Philippines. In her experience, internet services are not strong enough for rural Filipinos who heavily rely on internet for school and for work. Through Launchpad, Kath has been able to better map out her vision for a mobile device that can easily boost the signal strength of ISPs in the rural areas of the Philippines. Although she’s just a student, Kath is challenging herself to innovate for others, in the hopes that maybe she can provide a game-changing innovation for all of us who regularly struggle with poor internet connectivity.
