Innovation management platform for ideation, startup scouting, and ecosystem engagement
HYPE Innovation sells enterprise software for managing innovation programs end-to-end — ideation, technology scouting, startup partnerships, and ecosystem engagement. The tech stack (Java, GCP, identity management via Keycloak/Shibboleth) supports a B2B SaaS model, while active hiring in sales (3 open roles) paired with documented pain around 'expanding sales team' signals a growth-stage push into new markets or verticals.
