Innovation Insights by Stefan Lindegaard
  
Many companies are moving beyond the basics of open innovation making this new paradigm of innovation even more complex, challenging – and rewarding. This is the outset for a session led by open innovation expert, Stefan Lindegaard, in which we look into these issues:
 
• Connecting the Dots: An overview of the many kinds of external input and insights on how to use social media to unleash the full potential.

• The People Perspective: The role of employees, managers and executives and a discussion on how open innovation impacts corporate decisions and organizational culture.

• Big Meets Small: Insights and cases on making open innovation between big and small companies work.

This will be an interactive session in which Stefan Lindegaard starts conversations on the above topics. Lindegaard will share his views, but does not have all the answers so your input and insights are highly appreciated in a workshop where we all learn from each other.
