INNOVATHON

TOTAL, the major French oil and gas company, has set out to become the major responsible energy player. The Exploration and Production (E&P) branch represents the company’s historical activity.

The context

With the help of the Booster (TOTAL’s accelerator), the E&P Innovation Department sought to promote a new common culture within the E&P branch based on greater agility.

In order to embody this ambition, E&P has decided to organize a 2-day Innovathon with employees, start-uppers, prototypers and experts.

“Spring Lab’s utmost guiding principle: the ability to energize an entire process and people around a clear goal in 48 hours.”
Michael Offredi
Total Digital Ecosystem - Innovation Officer
