How to create and sustain the engagement of open innovation partners: an interactive exercise

When companies purposefully partner to scout, transform, accelerate and/ or make the process of innovation less expensive, more effective, and even more democratic they are setting themselves up for success. Sustaining this success, however, is not always straightforward. In this roundtable, we will discuss what it takes to create and sustain engagement at each step of the way with various partners and partner types. Oana-Maria Pop at HYPE Innovation and Mignon D'Arnaud at AkzoNobel will share practical insights from some of the biggest and most successful innovation ecosystems today. 

 

Key challenges for increasing the ROI on innovation

End-to-end solution lifecycle management with monetisation outcomes. Starting from new client needs, new regulation, external ideas, decoding the future business opportunities and the time to market, finding new partners up to revenues. Laurent will reveal how open innovation could help you to understand the new business opportunities in this upcoming regulation deluge, how to reinvent your business & delivery model, attract the right mindset and skills and match and convert these ideas into new revenues or corporate value.
