Corporate Foresight encompasses a set of methods, processes, actors and organisation forms that enable large
companies to identify, assess, and act upon opportunities and threats, that have been identified as weak signals in the
periphery.
Corporate Foresight aims at identifying these weak signals on:
- consumer needs and socio-cultural trends
- emerging technologies
- products, services and business models of competitors
- political developments

Growing a Wing
5% of resources dedicated to
expanding capabilities, without
an entirely clear idea of direction.

Evolving the Body

Resulting in the
gradual evolution
of your companys
(or new divisions)
value proposition.

Todays competition is obvious.

Tomorrows not.
Is your organizations innovative wing ready to meet
the future?
Established in Berlin in 2009 and supported
by Deutsche Telekom, the "Do-Tank"
Palomar5 brought together a network of
young, creative changemakers from diverse
background who actively participate in
making decisions about tomorrow's business
world.

Palormar5's goal is to distance itself from old-

fashioned ways of thinking and to create a
unique realm for innovation, creative spaces
and corporate foresight.

The Palomar5 6- Week Innovation camp in

Berlin became a huge success after involving
and interacting with the European Companies
in this bold attempt. Palomar5 evolved into
an innovation movement moving to San
Fransisco - collaborating with Gray Area
Foundation of the Arts to create permanent
innovation hubs. Palomar5 also initiates and
involves in fail conferences with Your
Neighbours, Ks12, Schmiede, Open Design
City, Transmediale and Silicon Sentier ( Paris
).

Deutsche Telekom : Deutsche Telekom AG is

the largest telecommunications company in
Europe. The European Corporate Foresight
Group was established in 2006 by the
Deutsche Telekom Laboratories, which
conducted international benchmarking
projects comparing their corporate foresight
activities with the companies all across the
globe.

 Training methodology
The future of business and opportunity has always been
dynamic and Darwinian. But the shifts in trends often
follow patterns and cycles that most often escapes the
superficial eye. But often these shifts in trends are an
extrapolation of present and past dynamics with a co-
relation of parameters based on socio-economic
sciences. And once you decipher the co-relation, you
could extrapolate the future occurances.
Microcamp helps you identify, understand and connect
with the trends. We deliver a universal framework of
forecasting techniques about the human spirit and lead
you through stimulating sessions through the use of
images and lateral thinking.

This camp combines macro analysis with applied

strategy including workshops, case studies, and
scenario planning.
We provide you with the following toolkit :
Context Map S-Curves Analysis Scenario
Planning Cross-Impact Analysis

Our journey will go through inspiration,

prototyping, iteration, storytelling, and festival
