Cabinet de conseil en stratégie et accélérateur pour A&D.
Starburst est un cabinet de conseil en stratégie et innovation et le premier accélérateur mondial d’entreprises dédié aux startups des secteurs aérospatial et défense (A&D). L’entreprise a été fondée à Paris en 2012 mais a rapidement élargi son implantation dans le monde et possède aujourd’hui 8 bureaux où une cinquantaine d’employés y sont répartis, comme : Paris, Munich, Los Angeles ou Séoul.
L’objectif de l’équipe conseil en stratégie est d’accompagner les clients de l’écosystème A&D sur leurs sujets stratégiques : définition de stratégie de croissance (nouveau segment de marché, nouvelle géographie, etc.), adaptation de la proposition de valeur d’une innovation, animation de hackathon / séminaire stratégique pour définir une stratégie long-terme, etc.
Quant à lui, l’accélérateur vise à offrir un accompagnement personnalisé aux startups identifiées ainsi que de donner à ses partenaires industriels et institutionnels internationaux un accès à l’écosystème d’innovation que crée Starburst.
