Keynote

Why innovation fails


In order to remain successful, it is important for organisations to be able to withstand the ever-accelerating pace of change and preferably stay one step ahead of it. It is crucial to look to the future in the right way, embrace uncertainty, seize opportunities and recognise threats in time. 

Why Innovation Fails, the keynote just like the book, does not just teach you to look into the future. It inspires you why we need to innovate, what exactly that is, and why it fails so often. 
You also get a better structural understanding of technological evolution over the next 10 years and the insights are translated into concrete keys to build future-robust, successful innovative companies and organisations.
