Chasm Institute programs are used by regional development organizations to help early-stage companies grow their business outside their native countries. We are currently conducting programs for regional development agencies including Gazelle Growth and Accelerace (Denmark) and Oulu Innovation (Finland).

Our programs typically involve a series of workshops for 10-12 companies, coupled with individual strategy consulting with each company to guide the management team in applying the principles in a way that best positions the company for market leadership.

Recommended programs include:

• Foundations of High-Tech Marketing (elearning)
• Framing Strategy
• Crossing the Chasm 
• Implementation Planning

A typical agenda is as follows; however, we are flexible in that we can adapt to work within your specific program.
