Startups & individuals
Being on the ground floor of a new organization as it confronts the unique challenges of coming to the marketplace with a new product or service is a fascinating proposition. I love bringing my background working with digital trends, managing innovation, and disruptive technology to elevate the offerings of these organizations.
Startups can be good places for social innovation and pursuing singularity because they often have a culture of innovation and risk-taking, as well as a focus on solving problems and creating new valuable solutions. This can provide an environment that is conducive to pursuing social innovation and exploring ideas related to singularity.
In a startup, there is often a sense of urgency and a need to move quickly, which can help to drive creative thinking and encourage people to think outside the box. Additionally, startups often have fewer constraints and a more flexible structure, which can allow for greater experimentation and exploration.
Furthermore, startups often have a strong sense of purpose and mission, which can help align the team’s efforts toward social innovation and singularity. This can create a sense of shared purpose and motivation, which can be an essential factor in driving progress and achieving success.
There are so many ways to introduce all kinds of AI/ML tools, quantitative innovation, meta-economy insights, and more to accelerate new products and services that expand the capabilities of startups and individual clients. I look forward to collaborating in this space with you!

Not only can I speak on how to overcome these challenges, but I often engage with organizations and communities that help cultivate the startup mindset concerning business flexibility and agile development.

TESTIMONIALS

"Marya was een van onze drie workshopleiders tijdens de 14e bijeenkomst van Women in Pharma& Medical Devices in Oktober 2018. Iedereen was laaiend enthousiast over Marya’s workshop. De kracht van Marya is dat ze als trendwatcher realistisch is over de voor- en mogelijke nadelen van alle ontwikkelingen in de huidige 4e industriële revolutie en tegelijkertijd iedereen motiveert om onder de steen vandaan te kruipen en mee te doen"

"Marya Yaqin is a young, talented and inspiring professional. She sketched for Peace SOS how to encourage peace based on the newest possibilities and latest technologies. This helps us to broaden our mindset and to think about new ways how to achieve peace and how to anticipate on new developments which do not contribute to peace and should be taken into account. Therefore I would certainly recommend to aks what Marya can do for you"
