The Innovation Hub is your opportunity to tell us about your supply chain ideas. Our aim is to create original tools and functionalities in response to your ideas.
Share ideas.
Earn rewards.
We want to better understand innovative ideas from our customers, with a view to making these ideas a reality. By crowdsourcing ideas, we hope to discover any opportunities to grow and develop your supply chain operations.
Then, where a solution would benefit many of our customers, Balloon consultants and the development team will explore the issue further and spend time devising solutions to it.
Why

The Value
Have your input on the future of supply chain logistics with innovative suggestions and the opportunity for Balloon consultants to explore, build and implement your idea.

If your Innovation submission is successful you will receive exclusive time from our consultants to scope the idea, free of charge. Following this, your idea could be piloted in your operation.
