Following a Learning Expedition to Silicon Valley, SNCF realized that they needed to invest in a local presence. They came to FABERNOVEL to extend and strengthen their ecosystem strategy in San Francisco and the surrounding area. The goal of the project is to anchor this new visit into a firmer ground for the SNCF:
Develop the partnerships in advance. Gather insights that will directly contribute to the design of the trip’s schedule
Build on top of the groundwork already done during the different visits in Silicon Valley.
The R&D antenna will be a long project in the making but needs some sparks from its inception to be successful.
If the antenna’s goal is to inspire the whole group in its digitalization, it has to showcase successful projects behind which all collaborators can rally, through regular announcements and communications.
During the first months we will be able to explore and test the different ways that SNCF can leverage its presence in Silicon Valley.
To reconcile agility, pragmatism and the needs for durability and scalability, the Lab will run by seasons. FABERNOVEL proposes to design, build and deploy the first season of the Lab, so as to proof-test its excellency and uncover the first outcomes for SNCF.
