The greater risk is not to innovate
Over the past five years, the 10 most innovative companies grew revenue 33%
faster than the 10 biggest spenders on R&D...and those most focused on a
narrow set of strategically aligned innovation capabilities outperformed peers by
40% in EBITDA as a percentage of revenue1
The key is not How much, but How
Apple, Google & 3M are perceived to be most innovative by far...yet spend far
less on R&D, in absolute dollars and as a % of revenue1
fido fills a void
31% of the Fortune 1000 cite the lack of systems or tools as a key barrier to
enterprise innovation, and 60% report a lack of external collaboration2
