Open Innovation

Innovation Engine 5 Weeks Cohort Live

Programme Overview

Co-innovation frameworks for enterprise leaders. This programme covers building startup partnerships, hackathon design, open-source ecosystems, and accelerating value creation through outside-in digital capability acquisition — culminating in the innovation accounting frameworks needed to measure, report, and defend the value of everything you build.

"The best ideas rarely come from inside the building. Open Innovation is the discipline of finding them systematically — and Innovation Accounting is the discipline of proving their worth."
