What excites companies most is the potential and promise of innovation – from product development
to digital enablement to a fresh approach to working. But where does innovation belong in a digital
environment, where many new approaches are being driven not by companies themselves, but by
technological development.
Technology is transforming the way we do business. Innovation requires new ways of thinking about
our products, our business and our partners. The goal of this summit is to facilitate dialogue between
innovation executives involved in product development, R&D, business development and marketing to
find where does innovation belong in a digital environment, where many new approaches are being
driven not by companies themselves, but by technological development.

The notion of ‘Breakthrough Innovation’ can be a daunting
one and can sometimes paralyze organizational teams from
making embracing innovation altogether. This session will
focus on how breakthrough innovation can be pursued more
practically and habitually – by identifying the right problem
and the right opportunity, by gathering comprehensive
insights, by designing and developing holistic solutions, and
by leveraging partnerships.
