Let’s co-design with our European Pilots during our next Innovation Academies!
Who are the pilots and what is their mission?
The pilots are a team of innovation’s representatives of each alliance’s member. They define themselves as:
“We are a bunch of pragmatic and entrepreneurial colleagues on a mission to discover sustainable, corrugated based packaging solutions that will bring value to our most respected global customers.”
For them, identifying the precise issue to be solved and co-design tomorrow’s solution is one of the best ways to serve our customers.
How do they do it? By offering
exclusive working sessions together with clients and cross-functional profiles (marketing, R&D, designer, production manager) and one of the partners of the European
innovation eco-system.
Based a
design thinking method facilitated by
Board Of Innovation, the objective is to quickly prototype and to accelerate projects that are already identified or that will be soon in the pipeline.
In November 2022, the Innovation Academy was hosted at H.B. Fuller’s location. Following its success, the Innovation Pilots have decided to continue this very valuable and customer-centric event and to set-up four Innovation Academies for 2022. Please save the dates below!

Origin of the European Pilots team
Since January 2021, our Chief Innovation Officer, Daphne DELEDICQ decided to create a dedicated team in order to answer global customers’ requests and to work together on key strategic packaging topics, sustainability and e-commerce.
This team gathers packaging design experts from the alliance with complementary profiles:
Most of them were already the ones trained in 2019 for FFP certification.
