DISCUSSION THEME

How to successfully create the context and conditions for launching disruptive innovations

The themes of innovation and change are key priorities for companies. Innovation is often the only way a company can generate a sustainable advantage in an increasingly competitive market.

We want to understand why some companies are consistently taking the pole position in their industry, transforming the rules of the game, putting their ideas into practice, and effectively and forcefully bringing new business opportunities to market.

  • How have these technologies literally changed our ways of doing things and our lives over the past 20 years
  • What conditions were met?
  • What are the upcoming innovations that will transform our future?
  • How do you build a culture of innovation within a business?
  • Why are information technologies so important?
  • What will be your own innovation initiative and your contribution to your company’s success?
