Companies are increasingly launching to learn. Companies such as GE are increasingly prototyping products in order to test them in the marketplace.

Technology, a new generation of employees and new business models have fundamentally transformed the way retailers need to operate.

The Market for Open Innovation Platforms: Deciding If and Where to Invest - J...Jose Briones
Open innovation became a key success factor for many companies today. But which is the right method for open innovation? Which are the criteria to plan an open innovation project? Which intermediary or service provider has specific knowledge and expertise in, e.g., crowdsourcing, the lead user method, Netnography, idea contests, technology scouting, or broadcast search? This interactive debate will analyze different platforms that are meant to accelerate innovation. You will leave with a better understanding of the options that are out there and whether it makes sense for you to invest in a certain platform. In reaching their conclusion, innovation professionals must:
Weigh the pros and cons of turning to a technology provider to help solve your OI needs
Understand the landscape of open innovation intermediaries and platforms
Make the most of your investment in an OI platform
For the first time in the history of Interbrand’s Best Global Brands report, there is a new #1 brand: Apple. Interbrand, the world’s leading brand consultancy, publishes Best Global Brands on an annual basis, identifying and examining the top 100 most valuable global brands. With Apple claiming the top position this year, Google jumps to #2 and Coca-Cola, the brand that held the #1 position for 13 consecutive years, moves to #3. This year, the total value of all 100 Best Global Brands is USD $1.5 trillion -- an 8.4 percent record increase over the total value of the 100 Best Global Brands in 2012.
In addition to identifying the top 100 most valuable global brands, this year’s Best Global Brands report also examines the evolving role of leadership as it relates to brands. Interbrand contends that leadership must now be shared. CEOs, CMOs and consumers all have the power to drive the value of the brands they manage or admire.

The Innovation Game: Why & How Businesses are Investing in Innovation Centers Capgemini
With tech startups rapidly eating into traditional sectors, large organizations face an increased pressure to innovate. The challenge is that traditional innovation approaches are broken. A recent study revealed that only 5% of R&D staff feel highly motivated to innovate. In certain sectors, more than 85% of new products fail and an overwhelming 90% of companies consider they are too slow in launching new products and services.
The weaknesses of traditional innovation approaches have led some organizations to explore different avenues and seek new inspiration. These organizations have launched innovation centers in major technology hubs with the explicit mandate to accelerate digital innovations. These innovation centers, comprising teams of people and often physical sites, are established in a global tech hub. The goal is to leverage the ecosystem of startups, venture capitalists, accelerators, vendors, and academic institutions that these hubs provide.
We interviewed leaders of innovation centers and conducted an extensive research study of the 200 largest companies in the world to identify best practices and critical success factors.
Global technology hubs are the preferred destinations for setting up innovation centers. 60% of companies that have set up these centers have a presence in the Silicon Valley but many more hubs are emerging – the top 10 cities in our analysis represent only 33% of total innovation centers. The US had the largest share with 31% of total innovation centers closely followed by Europe at 30% & Asia at 22%. Penetration varies significantly between sectors; manufacturing is a clear leader at 58%, but despite facing increasing pressures from digital disruptions, Financial Services lags at only 28%.
Innovation centers offer a range of benefits. They:
• Accelerate the speed of innovation
• Provide a fresh source of ideas
• Enhance risk-taking ability
• Attract talent
• Drive employee engagement
• Build a culture of innovation.
It is extremely challenging to make a success of innovation centers. The long list of critical success factors is a testimony to the size of the challenge. These factors range from clarity on the role of the innovation center to governance for innovation implementation. For example, innovation centers should not peer so far out into the future that it becomes disconnected from current realities. But, it should not confine itself too closely to the parent’s current operations to make breakthrough innovation impossible.
The advent of thriving technology hubs has created an innovation ecosystem that traditional organizations can tap into. By combining the culture and approach of innovation centers with their budget firepower and access to markets and customers, traditional organizations have an excellent opportunity to re-energize their innovation capability.
Our unique accelerator for creative companies has helped create 150+ jobs, $8million in new revenues, and a revolution in the way communities think about creative economy development.
For organisations that need to keep up with the velocity of change in their markets, customers and technology, Digital Agility is an end-to-end concept to market approach that enables you to deliver innovation faster and with less risk.
Unlike traditional product development and delivery models, Digital Agility is a lean, insight driven technique that helps you become more nimble, innovative, and responsive.

Innovation has become a core driver of growth, performance, and valuation. Managers often misunderstand the difference between a creative team and an innovative team.

3. WELCOME
The Corporate Entrepreneur Awards
recognize ground breaking ideas, game
changing products and services, and the
people that make it all happen within large
organizations - the corporate entrepreneur.
This year, we received over 95 nominations
– a testament to the importance of innovation
in driving the corporate growth agenda.
The accelerated pace of technological
advancement and digitalization have enabled
a step change in organizations’ ability to
deliver new services and products faster.
However, it takes an entrepreneurial spirit
combined with patience and rigor to move
from insights to ideas - and ideas to concepts
ready to be tested in-market.
Tonight, we celebrate the best and brightest:
those that have created significant and
sustainable value for the customer, company,
and culture. We honor, most of all, the people
in these organizations with the intuition and
insight required to see new opportunities,
and the conviction required to challenge the
status quo and “make it happen”.
As sponsor and host, we at Market Gravity
have been delighted by the quantity and
quality of nominations, and hold great respect
for the people and work behind them.
We wish you all the best of luck and hope that
you enjoy the event!
