ABOUT US
Innovation is inherently risky. We help entrepreneurial organizations build an innovation ecosystem to minimize investment risk while delivering products and services that your customers love! Effective, cross-functional teams and powerful, skilled leaders differentiate successful innovators from the competition.
Global NP Solutions gives you a toolkit for creating repeatable product development successes. We help you implement a customized innovation framework to grow your business, improve time-to-market, and enhance customer satisfaction. At the foundation of any outstanding organization is a cohesive and autonomous culture driving creativity and pursuit of profit.
Our Mission
Our mission is to help you succeed as an innovation leader by building unique and competitive skills.
We are passionate about helping you succeed with product and service development. Too often, it is easy to measure the failures and place blame on individuals. We believe that failure is minimized with a structured approach to innovation and that learning from mistakes is a noble goal. We also believe that every business exists to make money so risk and investment need to balance the triad of technology, markets, and customers.

Our History
Global NP Solutions was founded in late 2009 out of our passion to partner with organizations in creating strategic innovation solutions. Building innovation leaders requires a balance of practical, hands-on skills and executable, emerging knowledge. Our real-world experiences differentiate us from other innovation consultants. We never ask you to do something we wouldn’t – or haven’t – done.
