Corporate Innovation Offices

Innovation is never an easy feat to achieve alone. Some corporations pursue greater innovation through external collaborative programmes to rapidly acquire cutting-edge third-party technology in the hopes of potentially undercutting current market offerings. Yet, results from such programmes are often lacking and serve as a reminder that innovation executed by corporate staff becomes typically nothing more than a buzz-generating activity with little to show for throughout its lifespan.

There are better ways to get tangible results and applicable innovation within the organisation, but not with the current trajectory of execution. Let us show you how you can turn your current innovation cost centre into a sustainable, long-term profit centre.

WHY DO WE FACE THIS PROBLEM?

Many corporate innovation offices view themselves as alternative procurement departments seeking to acquire leading technology for a pittance. They are often run by individuals who understand the company mandate but not the innovation process. They will take on safe projects with easily attainable goals to avoid changing the status quo which, in turn, do not break grounds with the business or in the industry.

What if the problems holding you back from acquiring cutting-edge technology to seize the upper hand in the market could simply be solved with the right assets, the right people and the right approach?

Poor innovation practices only drain precious resources away from important endeavours and jeopardise your company’s future. Innovation requires having guts. Innovations requires taking calculated risks. A successful company understands and respects the significance of the innovation process.

Corporate innovation must be managed from the right perspective and with the right direction. Cultivating innovation in small private sector settings is radically different from doing so in a corporate environment. It is imperative for companies to recognise these differences and optimise their innovation programmes for greater compatibility in order to ensure a smooth adoption & integration of technology & culture.
