Driving Repeatable, Profitable Innovation in a Highly Competitive High-Tech Market
Top performing innovators achieve 2.5 times higher sales of new products and 10 times higher return from their innovation investments than the worst performers, per AD Little’s 2005 Innovation Excellence Study. This makes new product innovation absolutely critical to your company’s growth and continued success. And coordinating the activities of everyone involved in the cross-functional idea-to-launch process is the key to repeatable new product profitability and sales.

Like most companies, yours has probably been focused on managing new product content, such as CAD files, design documents, software code and bills of material. This makes it easy to overlook the most critical factor in driving successful innovation: your skilled and valuable staff, the human engines who actually conceive, design, develop and deliver new products.

Who should attend: Leaders of product development, product management, research & development, product marketing and marketing.
