Connecting Emerging Markets to the Global Ecosystem.
Edison Innovation Services is an advisory and implementation firm linking governments, universities, industry, entrepreneurs & start-ups, and investors (risk capital) in emerging markets to the global innovation ecosystem.
Our Services
- We diagnose and architect innovation ecosystems across national government, university, and private sector — from translational-layer diagnostics to governance and operating models.
- The hardest problem in emerging markets is scaling beyond MVP. We resolve it through our network — direct access to top-tier accelerators, risk capital, and value-chain interventions.
- We broker proven, commercially validated technologies from world-class enterprises and research institutions — localised and adapted to generate value in-country.
- We help universities deliver globally recognised qualifications at home — TNE, dual, and joint degrees — with accreditation, quality assurance, and faculty development handled end-to-end.
