Run enterprise innovation as a system

For corporate innovators, GlassDollar recommends the right solutions, guides teams through evaluation and pilots, and gives every business unit a direct way to participate.

Trusted by 4,500+ innovators

Three things every innovation manager worries about (but rarely says out loud)

If you are responsible for innovation at a large organization, your job is harder than it looks from the outside.

This is too risky

You need innovation that delivers real business impact and a system that tells you which opportunities are worth pursuing.

I'm losing control

You are responsible for company-wide innovation, but you have no idea who is doing what with whom.

Nobody sees what I do

You need to prove your work matters, before your budget disappears.
"Huge advantage from day one."
We strived for innovation with controlled risk and clear results, knowing which opportunities are worth pursuing and running enough of them to guarantee real impact. With GlassDollar, all our projects are now centrally tracked. Every running pilot, every partnership, every outcome visible to the whole team in one place. And today we can say we have proven that Startup Partnering at TRUMPF is a profitable investment in our future.
