Women in Wireless UK - Women Leading the Innovation Charge
Wednesday 25 June, 6:30 PM 2014 to 9:30 PM 2014
Somerset House, London, England, WC2R 1LA (View Map)
In the past, innovation was thought of as being largely the realm of larger corporations, and originating primarily or exclusively from R&D; labs. However, a broader view of innovation – one that goes beyond technology and products – has emerged. In these dynamic, consumer-led, technology centric times, products and services must innovate to differentiate against their competitors to deliver sustainable advantage.
Come along and meet the women who are leading the charge when it comes to innovation. Learn about how they are using innovation practices in organisational behaviour, marketing, new product / service development and ultimately how they are creating value and reaping true business benefits through the creation of an integrated eco-system that fosters innovation.
