2. What is it?
A SIMPLE WEB APPLICATION THAT
RANDOMLY PAIRS PEOPLE FOR LUNCH:
USING IT WILL:
1. FOSTER SERENDIPITY IN THE WORKPLACE
2. HELP YOU BUILD OUT YOUR NETWORK OF
PROFESSIONAL CONTACTS
3. MAKE SURE YOU TAKE LUNCH

3. You don’t want to be this guy

4. But you can’t just randomly intrude on these
folks …

5. The ‘Innovation’ Process

6. What does it look like?

7. People love facts. That’s a fact.
AT OUR COMPANY (BOEHRINGER INGELHEIM):
450 USES IN THE FIRST TWO MONTHS
80% MATCH RATE
2 U.S. LOCATIONS USING THE TOOL
SOON TO BE GLOBAL

8. Here’s why it’s powerful
 These bubbles represent
functional areas
 The size of the bubble
represents how often
people from those
functions used
LunchRoulette
 That’s a lot of functions
‘talking’, across the
business, about the
business

9. Innovation is so, um, 2012 …
