Senior thinking.
Practical delivery.
A fractional Chief Innovation Officer is someone who takes that role for part of each month. We call it a CIO for short.
What does that mean for you?
Big companies have someone whose whole job is working out how technology can make the business better. Most Kiwi businesses cannot justify that as a full-time role.
You get that thinking, with a delivery team behind it to get the work done. We stay involved, review progress and help choose what comes next.
One partnership.
Three connected parts.
Work out what matters. Make it happen. Keep it working.

Meet Virtual InnovationYour questions.
Answered.
What does a Chief Innovation Officer actually do?
They help decide how technology can make the business better. Our role connects that thinking with delivery: get to know your business, agree priorities, coordinate the work and keep reviewing what is useful.
Is my business big enough for this?
This is for established New Zealand businesses that need someone to take a wider view of their technology but cannot justify a full-time role. Some need senior involvement in bigger decisions. Others need a smaller, regular amount of practical help. We start with a conversation about what fits.
How is this different from a website care plan?
A website care plan focuses on your website. An innovation partnership looks across the business, from priorities and suppliers to websites, workflows, software and agreed infrastructure support. The scope depends on the level of partnership we agree.
How much does it cost?
Let’s talk about where you want to go, what is getting in the way and how much ongoing help you need. We can then work through the right level of involvement and the cost with you.
