Seminars
and Events
Product innovations are the life blood
of the modern corporation, but product innovation is in trouble - R&D
productivity is down - there is less bang for buck.
Given that it takes
roughly 100 ideas to yield one successful new product
- a shortage of big ideas impacts your future growth.
Generating Breakthrough New Product Ideas: Feeding
the Innovation Funnel provides valuable insights into how to feed your
innovation funnel with a steady stream of breakthrough new products. This
seminar will provide numerous examples of the methods, approaches and techniques
used by leading companies to drive innovation. Establish a proactive Discovery
Stage that focuses on the drivers of innovation performance to transform your
organization into an innovation machine. Join Dr. Edgett for this critical
2-day seminar on sustaining organic growth through innovation
and learn what top-performing companies like Motorola and Procter & Gamble
have implemented.
