Lotik came out of research into a set of problems that recur in almost every R&D collaboration: the difficulty of tracing intellectual contributions over years, the risk of sharing sensitive information with partners — competitors included — agreements that take months to update, intellectual property with no clear record of origin, and reports rebuilt by hand every cycle.
The research behind Lotik began at the University of São Paulo, was validated with industry and presented at international forums. We didn’t arrive at this market looking for an opportunity. We arrived because it was the problem we were studying.
Research institutions, funding agencies and companies that have followed Lotik’s development.
Post-doctorate from MIT, PhD and Master’s from the University of São Paulo. Author of ten books and around fifty publications on project management, innovation and organizational agility, with international recognition from IPMA, PMI and POMS. For two decades he has served as an executive advisor to global companies transforming their innovation portfolios — the experience behind Lotik’s reading of how R&D ecosystems actually work.
PhD from the University of São Paulo, with a background in production engineering and experience in innovation management and product development. She led the research that gave rise to Lotik and drove its transformation into a platform, from first concept to pilots with institutional partners.
The team brings together production engineering, innovation management and software development, with experience in applied research, platform architecture and collaborative projects across university, industry and funding agencies.
