With the Innovation Leaders Club’s third insightful event, we keep the exciting journey progressing and the community growing! This time we meet virtually, but still in an interactive and practical way. The upcoming deep dive session focuses on creating an actionable innovation strategy. Together we will explore the best practices of translating strategic goals into an innovation funnel, which encourages internal and external innovative minds to contribute and co-create. How to build up a pipeline, maintain a steady stream of innovative ideas in your company, manage expectations, celebrate success, and deal with challenges while creating the foundation of sustainable innovation function – all of these questions will be answered during our next event.
Thoughts, dialogues, and experiences will be shared by innovation leaders from Tallink Group, Orkla Estonia, Emergency Response Center, Husqvarna Group and Combient, the leading cross-industry collaboration network in the Nordics.
