WHAT IS INNOVATION
CREATIVITY is about new ideas
INNOVATION is the profitable
implementation of these ideas
Why it is important In Fortune 500 companieshellip New products account for 50 of revenues
And 40 of profits
companies value innovation
are classified as innovative by their
peers
of their customers would agree
of companies think they had a major innovation in the
last 6 months
of ideas fail when brought to the market
Why Study Innovation (Scientifically) bull Everyone seems to have an
opinion about Innovation and there is an enormous amount of (conflicting) ldquoinformationrdquo
bull A need for facts instead of opinions
bull A need for fact based theories to guide action
In Amazon there are 76579 books on innovation
We are committed to helping companies move faster and reduce risks The Fast Bridge Solution bull A fact based approach bull World class content training solutions and business partnerships bull A network of over 200 freelancers (all with gt10 years experience)
with a special focus on mentors from Silicon Valley World class innovation solutions in Belgium with a small flexible team

Our Core Interest
Innovation is hard work but startups are getting it right
more often
Start-ups are about
more successful with new business projects than established companies
Some experts estimate that over
of success in innovation is based on systems
5x 80
What should large companies change in their
systems
More importantly

Theoretical Background
Our work so farhellip
bull 42 one to one company interviews to validate questions and test questions found in over 200 academic articles
bull A survey with 71 test companies testing initial questions and validating links to innovation performance
bull April 2015 we updated the full survey to better analyze disruptive and ongoing innovation success
Now we are going to look at facts figures on innovation
success
2 definitions to start
1 Sustaining innovations 2 Breakthrough innovations
Sustaining Keep competitive
Breakthrough Create future
Setting up the research

How to measure ldquoAre you strategically aligned = different things to different people
The solution Using multiple measures of an underlying construct eg ldquoStrategic Alignment = ldquo 1 Our innovation strategy is clearly communicated so that
everyone knows the targets for improvement 2 My organization strategically allocates specific resources
(money staff materials and space) for innovation to make it easier for potential innovators
3 There is commitment and support for innovation from top management Etchellip

11 questions Cronbach Alpha 72 Remove 3 questions 1 Our firm is oriented more toward the future than the present 2 All new product and process decisions in our firm require the approval of the
corporate office for strategic alignment 3 Few strategic actions can be taken in divisions in our firm until the corporate
office approves these actions 8 questions Cronbach Alpha 84
This was done for every question in the research twice
A validity check (eg Innovation Results) Self-reported questions bull Rate of growth bull Rate of new productservice introductions bull Success rate of productservice introductions bull Level of product differentiation in terms of
unique selling points bull New product cycle time bull Ability to create new productsservices with
real consumer value bull Profitability of new productservice
introductions bull Percentage of revenues from new products
introduced in the last 2 years
Compared with actual results for 42 companies
Validity Scaled measures Self
declared measures had a 8 correlation
Reliability The reliability of all scales was greater than 80 most
higher than 9 (typical cut-off values 6-7)

WHAT IS INNOVATION
CREATIVITY is about new ideas
INNOVATION is the profitable
implementation of these ideas
Why it is important In Fortune 500 companieshellip New products account for 50 of revenues
And 40 of profits
companies value innovation
are classified as innovative by their
peers
of their customers would agree
of companies think they had a major innovation in the
last 6 months
of ideas fail when brought to the market
Why Study Innovation (Scientifically) bull Everyone seems to have an
opinion about Innovation and there is an enormous amount of (conflicting) ldquoinformationrdquo
bull A need for facts instead of opinions
bull A need for fact based theories to guide action
In Amazon there are 76579 books on innovation

Theoretical Background
Our work so farhellip
bull 42 one to one company interviews to validate questions and test questions found in over 200 academic articles
bull A survey with 71 test companies testing initial questions and validating links to innovation performance
bull April 2015 we updated the full survey to better analyze disruptive and ongoing innovation success
Now we are going to look at facts figures on innovation

How to measure ldquoAre you strategically aligned = different things to different people
The solution Using multiple measures of an underlying construct eg ldquoStrategic Alignment = ldquo 1 Our innovation strategy is clearly communicated so that
everyone knows the targets for improvement 2 My organization strategically allocates specific resources
(money staff materials and space) for innovation to make it easier for potential innovators
3 There is commitment and support for innovation from top management Etchellip
Reliability Analysis all measuring the same thing Measure Cronbach alpha 0-1 (gt6 good gt8 great)
Mea
11 questions Cronbach Alpha 72 Remove 3 questions 1 Our firm is oriented more toward the future than the present 2 All new product and process decisions in our firm require the approval of the
corporate office for strategic alignment 3 Few strategic actions can be taken in divisions in our firm until the corporate
office approves these actions 8 questions Cronbach Alpha 84
This was done for every question in the research twice
A validity check (eg Innovation Results) Self-reported questions bull Rate of growth bull Rate of new productservice introductions bull Success rate of productservice introductions bull Level of product differentiation in terms of
unique selling points bull New product cycle time bull Ability to create new productsservices with
real consumer value bull Profitability of new productservice
introductions bull Percentage of revenues from new products
introduced in the last 2 years
Compared with actual results for 42 companies
Validity Scaled measures Self
declared measures had a 8 correlation
Reliability The reliability of all scales was greater than 80 most
higher than 9 (typical cut-off values 6-7)

bull 42 one to one company interviews to validate questions and test questions found in over 200 academic articles
bull A survey with 71 test companies testing initial questions and validating links to innovation performance
bull April 2015 we updated the full survey to better analyze disruptive and ongoing innovation success
Now we are going to look at facts figures on innovation
success
2 definitions to start
1 Sustaining innovations 2 Breakthrough innovations
Sustaining Keep competitive
Breakthrough Create future
Setting up the research

How to measure ldquoAre you strategically aligned = different things to different people
The solution Using multiple measures of an underlying construct eg ldquoStrategic Alignment = ldquo 1 Our innovation strategy is clearly communicated so that
everyone knows the targets for improvement 2 My organization strategically allocates specific resources
(money staff materials and space) for innovation to make it easier for potential innovators
3 There is commitment and support for innovation from top management Etchellip
Reliability Analysis all measuring the same thing Measure Cronbach alpha 0-1 (gt6 good gt8 great)
Mea
11 questions Cronbach Alpha 72 Remove 3 questions 1 Our firm is oriented more toward the future than the present 2 All new product and process decisions in our firm require the approval of the
corporate office for strategic alignment 3 Few strategic actions can be taken in divisions in our firm until the corporate
office approves these actions 8 questions Cronbach Alpha 84
This was done for every question in the research twice
A validity check (eg Innovation Results) Self-reported questions bull Rate of growth bull Rate of new productservice introductions bull Success rate of productservice introductions bull Level of product differentiation in terms of
unique selling points bull New product cycle time bull Ability to create new productsservices with
real consumer value bull Profitability of new productservice
introductions bull Percentage of revenues from new products
introduced in the last 2 years
Compared with actual results for 42 companies
Validity Scaled measures Self
declared measures had a 8 correlation
Reliability The reliability of all scales was greater than 80 most
higher than 9 (typical cut-off values 6-7)

WHAT IS INNOVATION
CREATIVITY is about new ideas
INNOVATION is the profitable
implementation of these ideas
Why it is important In Fortune 500 companieshellip New products account for 50 of revenues
And 40 of profits
companies value innovation
are classified as innovative by their
peers
of their customers would agree
of companies think they had a major innovation in the
last 6 months
of ideas fail when brought to the market
Why Study Innovation (Scientifically) bull Everyone seems to have an
opinion about Innovation and there is an enormous amount of (conflicting) ldquoinformationrdquo
bull A need for facts instead of opinions
bull A need for fact based theories to guide action
In Amazon there are 76579 books on innovation
We are committed to helping companies move faster and reduce risks The Fast Bridge Solution bull A fact based approach bull World class content training solutions and business partnerships bull A network of over 200 freelancers (all with gt10 years experience)

Why it is important In Fortune 500 companieshellip New products account for 50 of revenues
And 40 of profits
companies value innovation
are classified as innovative by their
peers
of their customers would agree
of companies think they had a major innovation in the
last 6 months
of ideas fail when brought to the market
Why Study Innovation (Scientifically) bull Everyone seems to have an
opinion about Innovation and there is an enormous amount of (conflicting) ldquoinformationrdquo
bull A need for facts instead of opinions
bull A need for fact based theories to guide action

How to measure ldquoAre you strategically aligned = different things to different people
The solution Using multiple measures of an underlying construct eg ldquoStrategic Alignment = ldquo 1 Our innovation strategy is clearly communicated so that
everyone knows the targets for improvement 2 My organization strategically allocates specific resources
(money staff materials and space) for innovation to make it easier for potential innovators
3 There is commitment and support for innovation from top management Etchellip

corporate office for strategic alignment 3 Few strategic actions can be taken in divisions in our firm until the corporate
office approves these actions 8 questions Cronbach Alpha 84
This was done for every question in the research twice

How to measure ldquoAre you strategically aligned = different things to different people
The solution Using multiple measures of an underlying construct eg ldquoStrategic Alignment = ldquo 1 Our innovation strategy is clearly communicated so that
everyone knows the targets for improvement 2 My organization strategically allocates specific resources
(money staff materials and space) for innovation to make it easier for potential innovators
3 There is commitment and support for innovation from top management Etchellip

Mea
11 questions Cronbach Alpha 72 Remove 3 questions 1 Our firm is oriented more toward the future than the present 2 All new product and process decisions in our firm require the approval of the
corporate office for strategic alignment 3 Few strategic actions can be taken in divisions in our firm until the corporate
office approves these actions 8 questions Cronbach Alpha 84
This was done for every question in the research twice
A validity check (eg Innovation Results) Self-reported questions bull Rate of growth bull Rate of new productservice introductions bull Success rate of productservice introductions bull Level of product differentiation in terms of
unique selling points bull New product cycle time bull Ability to create new productsservices with
real consumer value bull Profitability of new productservice
introductions bull Percentage of revenues from new products
introduced in the last 2 years
Compared with actual results for 42 companies
Validity Scaled measures Self
declared measures had a 8 correlation
Reliability The reliability of all scales was greater than 80 most

How to measure ldquoAre you strategically aligned = different things to different people
The solution Using multiple measures of an underlying construct eg ldquoStrategic Alignment = ldquo 1 Our innovation strategy is clearly communicated so that
everyone knows the targets for improvement 2 My organization strategically allocates specific resources
(money staff materials and space) for innovation to make it easier for potential innovators
3 There is commitment and support for innovation from top management Etchellip
Reliability Analysis all measuring the same thing Measure Cronbach alpha 0-1 (gt6 good gt8 great)

11 questions Cronbach Alpha 72 Remove 3 questions 1 Our firm is oriented more toward the future than the present 2 All new product and process decisions in our firm require the approval of the
corporate office for strategic alignment 3 Few strategic actions can be taken in divisions in our firm until the corporate
office approves these actions 8 questions Cronbach Alpha 84
This was done for every question in the research twice
A validity check (eg Innovation Results) Self-reported questions bull Rate of growth bull Rate of new productservice introductions bull Success rate of productservice introductions bull Level of product differentiation in terms of
unique selling points bull New product cycle time bull Ability to create new productsservices with
real consumer value bull Profitability of new productservice
introductions bull Percentage of revenues from new products
introduced in the last 2 years

How to measure ldquoAre you strategically aligned = different things to different people
The solution Using multiple measures of an underlying construct eg ldquoStrategic Alignment = ldquo 1 Our innovation strategy is clearly communicated so that
everyone knows the targets for improvement 2 My organization strategically allocates specific resources
(money staff materials and space) for innovation to make it easier for potential innovators
3 There is commitment and support for innovation from top management Etchellip

Mea
11 questions Cronbach Alpha 72 Remove 3 questions 1 Our firm is oriented more toward the future than the present 2 All new product and process decisions in our firm require the approval of the
corporate office for strategic alignment 3 Few strategic actions can be taken in divisions in our firm until the corporate
office approves these actions 8 questions Cronbach Alpha 84
This was done for every question in the research twice
A validity check (eg Innovation Results) Self-reported questions bull Rate of growth bull Rate of new productservice introductions bull Success rate of productservice introductions bull Level of product differentiation in terms of
unique selling points bull New product cycle time bull Ability to create new productsservices with
real consumer value bull Profitability of new productservice
introductions bull Percentage of revenues from new products
introduced in the last 2 years
Compared with actual results for 42 companies

Theoretical Background
Our work so farhellip
bull 42 one to one company interviews to validate questions and test questions found in over 200 academic articles
bull A survey with 71 test companies testing initial questions and validating links to innovation performance
bull April 2015 we updated the full survey to better analyze disruptive and ongoing innovation success
Now we are going to look at facts figures on innovation

2 definitions to start
1 Sustaining innovations 2 Breakthrough innovations
Sustaining Keep competitive
Breakthrough Create future

How to measure ldquoAre you strategically aligned = different things to different people
The solution Using multiple measures of an underlying construct eg ldquoStrategic Alignment = ldquo 1 Our innovation strategy is clearly communicated so that
everyone knows the targets for improvement 2 My organization strategically allocates specific resources
(money staff materials and space) for innovation to make it easier for potential innovators
3 There is commitment and support for innovation from top management Etchellip
Reliability Analysis all measuring the same thing Measure Cronbach alpha 0-1 (gt6 good gt8 great)
Mea
11 questions Cronbach Alpha 72 Remove 3 questions 1 Our firm is oriented more toward the future than the present 2 All new product and process decisions in our firm require the approval of the
corporate office for strategic alignment 3 Few strategic actions can be taken in divisions in our firm until the corporate
office approves these actions 8 questions Cronbach Alpha 84
This was done for every question in the research twice
A validity check (eg Innovation Results) Self-reported questions bull Rate of growth bull Rate of new productservice introductions bull Success rate of productservice introductions bull Level of product differentiation in terms of
unique selling points bull New product cycle time bull Ability to create new productsservices with
real consumer value bull Profitability of new productservice
introductions bull Percentage of revenues from new products
introduced in the last 2 years
Compared with actual results for 42 companies
Validity Scaled measures Self
declared measures had a 8 correlation
Reliability The reliability of all scales was greater than 80 most
higher than 9 (typical cut-off values 6-7)

Our Core Interest
Innovation is hard work but startups are getting it right
more often
Start-ups are about
more successful with new business projects than established companies
Some experts estimate that over
of success in innovation is based on systems
5x 80
What should large companies change in their
systems

Theoretical Background
Our work so farhellip
bull 42 one to one company interviews to validate questions and test questions found in over 200 academic articles
bull A survey with 71 test companies testing initial questions and validating links to innovation performance
bull April 2015 we updated the full survey to better analyze disruptive and ongoing innovation success
Now we are going to look at facts figures on innovation
success
2 definitions to start
1 Sustaining innovations 2 Breakthrough innovations
Sustaining Keep competitive
Breakthrough Create future
Setting up the research
Our research database 3 types of variables
1 Dependent Variables (Innovation Business performance)

How to measure ldquoAre you strategically aligned = different things to different people
The solution Using multiple measures of an underlying construct eg ldquoStrategic Alignment = ldquo 1 Our innovation strategy is clearly communicated so that
everyone knows the targets for improvement 2 My organization strategically allocates specific resources
(money staff materials and space) for innovation to make it easier for potential innovators
3 There is commitment and support for innovation from top management Etchellip
Reliability Analysis all measuring the same thing Measure Cronbach alpha 0-1 (gt6 good gt8 great)
Mea
11 questions Cronbach Alpha 72 Remove 3 questions 1 Our firm is oriented more toward the future than the present 2 All new product and process decisions in our firm require the approval of the
corporate office for strategic alignment 3 Few strategic actions can be taken in divisions in our firm until the corporate
office approves these actions 8 questions Cronbach Alpha 84
This was done for every question in the research twice
A validity check (eg Innovation Results) Self-reported questions bull Rate of growth bull Rate of new productservice introductions bull Success rate of productservice introductions bull Level of product differentiation in terms of
unique selling points bull New product cycle time bull Ability to create new productsservices with
real consumer value bull Profitability of new productservice
introductions bull Percentage of revenues from new products
introduced in the last 2 years
Compared with actual results for 42 companies
Validity Scaled measures Self
declared measures had a 8 correlation
Reliability The reliability of all scales was greater than 80 most
higher than 9 (typical cut-off values 6-7)

How to measure ldquoAre you strategically aligned = different things to different people
The solution Using multiple measures of an underlying construct eg ldquoStrategic Alignment = ldquo 1 Our innovation strategy is clearly communicated so that
everyone knows the targets for improvement 2 My organization strategically allocates specific resources
(money staff materials and space) for innovation to make it easier for potential innovators
3 There is commitment and support for innovation from top management Etchellip

11 questions Cronbach Alpha 72 Remove 3 questions 1 Our firm is oriented more toward the future than the present 2 All new product and process decisions in our firm require the approval of the
corporate office for strategic alignment 3 Few strategic actions can be taken in divisions in our firm until the corporate
office approves these actions 8 questions Cronbach Alpha 84
This was done for every question in the research twice
A validity check (eg Innovation Results) Self-reported questions bull Rate of growth bull Rate of new productservice introductions bull Success rate of productservice introductions bull Level of product differentiation in terms of
unique selling points bull New product cycle time bull Ability to create new productsservices with
real consumer value bull Profitability of new productservice
introductions bull Percentage of revenues from new products
introduced in the last 2 years
Compared with actual results for 42 companies

How to measure ldquoAre you strategically aligned = different things to different people
The solution Using multiple measures of an underlying construct eg ldquoStrategic Alignment = ldquo 1 Our innovation strategy is clearly communicated so that
everyone knows the targets for improvement 2 My organization strategically allocates specific resources
(money staff materials and space) for innovation to make it easier for potential innovators
3 There is commitment and support for innovation from top management Etchellip

How to measure ldquoAre you strategically aligned = different things to different people
The solution Using multiple measures of an underlying construct eg ldquoStrategic Alignment = ldquo 1 Our innovation strategy is clearly communicated so that
everyone knows the targets for improvement 2 My organization strategically allocates specific resources
(money staff materials and space) for innovation to make it easier for potential innovators
3 There is commitment and support for innovation from top management Etchellip
Reliability Analysis all measuring the same thing Measure Cronbach alpha 0-1 (gt6 good gt8 great)
Mea
11 questions Cronbach Alpha 72 Remove 3 questions 1 Our firm is oriented more toward the future than the present 2 All new product and process decisions in our firm require the approval of the
corporate office for strategic alignment 3 Few strategic actions can be taken in divisions in our firm until the corporate
office approves these actions 8 questions Cronbach Alpha 84
This was done for every question in the research twice
A validity check (eg Innovation Results) Self-reported questions bull Rate of growth bull Rate of new productservice introductions bull Success rate of productservice introductions bull Level of product differentiation in terms of
unique selling points bull New product cycle time bull Ability to create new productsservices with
real consumer value bull Profitability of new productservice
introductions bull Percentage of revenues from new products
introduced in the last 2 years
Compared with actual results for 42 companies
Validity Scaled measures Self
declared measures had a 8 correlation
Reliability The reliability of all scales was greater than 80 most
higher than 9 (typical cut-off values 6-7)

How to measure ldquoAre you strategically aligned = different things to different people
The solution Using multiple measures of an underlying construct eg ldquoStrategic Alignment = ldquo 1 Our innovation strategy is clearly communicated so that
everyone knows the targets for improvement 2 My organization strategically allocates specific resources
(money staff materials and space) for innovation to make it easier for potential innovators
3 There is commitment and support for innovation from top management Etchellip

corporate office for strategic alignment 3 Few strategic actions can be taken in divisions in our firm until the corporate
office approves these actions 8 questions Cronbach Alpha 84
This was done for every question in the research twice

5 Risk Reduction
3 ways to reduce risks
1 Learn to think like an entrepreneur managing risks (what can I do with what I have)
2 Stop talking upside start talking affordable lost
3 Focus on death threats first
6 Systems to promote cycles
And reduce risks
When there are no death threats left You canrsquot help but succeed
An example of world class (not Snarc)
Objectives A weekly learning cycle every week for 10 weeks10 ideas for new users uses of their productAt least 80 new ideas with 60 killed 10 merged and 10 in progress
Alignment Every Mondayhellip what next nowBuild ideas Each Friday a brain-storming session (with new external people)CommunicateCheckSystems Identify death threats work on death threats
Kill all weak ideas where death threats not resolved in 2 weeksAn 10 minute standing meeting every morningWrite and document work done each week
One person writes up the ideas Another lists the death threatsExternal experts to validate give feedback on all ideas
How this worked in practice Weeks 1 ndash 3 all the old ideas Weeks 3-4 better ideas Weeks 5-7 desperation Weeks 8-10 real better ideas
Maybe why traditional one off braininstorming doesnrsquot really work

Communicate IDEAS
If people donrsquot understand you canrsquot ask them for feedback
Why
Wonderful
There are 2 really big questions
26000 New product Introductions 70 of success F (Meaningful Unique )

5 Risk Reduction
3 ways to reduce risks
1 Learn to think like an entrepreneur managing risks (what can I do with what I have)
2 Stop talking upside start talking affordable lost
3 Focus on death threats first
6 Systems to promote cycles
And reduce risks
When there are no death threats left You canrsquot help but succeed
An example of world class (not Snarc)
Objectives A weekly learning cycle every week for 10 weeks10 ideas for new users uses of their productAt least 80 new ideas with 60 killed 10 merged and 10 in progress
Alignment Every Mondayhellip what next nowBuild ideas Each Friday a brain-storming session (with new external people)CommunicateCheckSystems Identify death threats work on death threats
Kill all weak ideas where death threats not resolved in 2 weeksAn 10 minute standing meeting every morningWrite and document work done each week
One person writes up the ideas Another lists the death threatsExternal experts to validate give feedback on all ideas
How this worked in practice Weeks 1 ndash 3 all the old ideas Weeks 3-4 better ideas Weeks 5-7 desperation Weeks 8-10 real better ideas
Maybe why traditional one off braininstorming doesnrsquot really work

The most important question a scale
up needs to ask
ldquoIf this business fails why would it fail rdquo
5 Whys Why is no one paying for our service We never asked anyone to pay
Why have we never asked anyone We havenrsquot found a pain someone is willing to pay to resolve
Why no pain to resolve We havenrsquot focused on a specific segment yet
Why no segment yet We have spent too much time at our desk
Why too much time at our desk We are scared to meet clients because we donrsquot have ideas to sell
We need ideas for things we can sell
2 Executive alignment
Executive alignment
Executive program 15 day C level focus Indiv company or several companies Day 1 ldquoHow tordquo Day 2 ldquoWe needrdquo Deliverable skills to manage 4-6 blue cards

Option 2 A company specific program
Sample Questions
Snarcrsquos blue card (just one)
Make it a story Be honest Be specific
Define your Request for help
Lets get paid
Why it is important (the story)
If we cant find a way to get people to pay for our service we have no business regardless of how great our technology is how many people download our product or how useful it is
Request 3 ideas to make money that we can test
We are not interested inA fee for use of the plug-inWhy people will not pay
ConstraintsWe have around 100 K to grow the business so the solutions need to be low cost AND we need to work with partners

Communicate IDEAS
If people donrsquot understand you canrsquot ask them for feedback
Why
Wonderful
There are 2 really big questions
26000 New product Introductions 70 of success F (Meaningful Unique )
112
A million dollar formula 6 Meaningful + 4 Unique = the best predictor of success Cut-off = 6 or better
Why
Wonderful
Sugging to real information hellip
Hey mom what you thinkhellip Thatrsquos great sonhellip 3 reasons yoursquod buy this product
Please tell me If this business failed Why did it fail 3 ideas for improvement
5 Risk Reduction
3 ways to reduce risks
1 Learn to think like an entrepreneur managing risks (what can I do with what I have)
2 Stop talking upside start talking affordable lost
3 Focus on death threats first
6 Systems to promote cycles
And reduce risks
When there are no death threats left You canrsquot help but succeed
An example of world class (not Snarc)
Objectives A weekly learning cycle every week for 10 weeks10 ideas for new users uses of their productAt least 80 new ideas with 60 killed 10 merged and 10 in progress
Alignment Every Mondayhellip what next nowBuild ideas Each Friday a brain-storming session (with new external people)CommunicateCheckSystems Identify death threats work on death threats
Kill all weak ideas where death threats not resolved in 2 weeksAn 10 minute standing meeting every morningWrite and document work done each week
One person writes up the ideas Another lists the death threatsExternal experts to validate give feedback on all ideas
How this worked in practice Weeks 1 ndash 3 all the old ideas Weeks 3-4 better ideas Weeks 5-7 desperation Weeks 8-10 real better ideas
Maybe why traditional one off braininstorming doesnrsquot really work
7 Moments of truth Almost anything works faster with a deadline
bull Inspiration days bull Pitch events (with internal external
judges) bull Hackathons
Up and running in 82 cities Moments of truth (they call them forcing moments) are the foundation Graduates 80 success 52 funding
