Talk to usA proven process: define, scout, screen, connect.
Every engagement follows the same four steps. The challenge is yours, the structure is ours.
Define
A short workshop to clarify the challenge, its constraints and what a good outcome looks like.
Scout
We use our European network to identify potential solutions aligned with your challenge.
Screen
We narrow the list down to your best-fit solutions, reviewed against your criteria and technical feasibility.
Connect
Introduction meetings with your selected solution providers, ready for a proof of concept.
Before you reach out.
Do we need a fully-defined challenge to start?
No. The Define step exists to turn a rough problem or opportunity into a clear brief together, before any scouting starts.
Can Fabway stay in the background of our search?
Yes. We can disclose or withhold your company name when contacting potential partners. That’s one of the first things we agree on during the Define step.
How much does it cost?
It depends on the scope: end-to-end support or team support, and the depth of the scouting needed. Contact us and we’ll walk through it together.
What sectors and technologies do you cover?
We specialize in industry, with a transversal view across construction, manufacturing, textile, energy and mobility, and technologies from AI and data to automation, digital twins, quality control and more.
Ready for the right connection?
