Established innovators. Start-ups. Venture Capitalists. Entrepreneurs. Researchers. Thoughts leaders from Stanford and Berkeley. By stepping away from your day-to-day routine and immersing yourself in the world of forward-looking companies and imaginative thinkers shaping the future, you can tap into their perspectives and experience, internalize the principles that drive innovation success, and immediately apply these insights to your own strategic innovation and organizational change initiatives.
