Innovation isn’t just for startups - it’s essential for corporates too. To stay resilient and #future ready, we must drive #innovation alongside our core business. By empowering people with a strong culture of innovation and an intrapreneurial mindset, you can succeed on both sides 👇    Over three years ago, we partnered with Uwe Kirschner and his team to introduce the Innovation Framework, transforming how we approach new business opportunities. Powered by this holistic framework and the #ValidationEngine accelerator, innovation teams are enabled to think and act like startups. At Siemens Industry, we want to foster an environment where people are encouraged to explore and experiment. Not every idea will succeed - and that's part of the game. By focusing on data and customer collaboration, we identify what truly adds value. 👉 With 350+ participants, 60+ teams, and 4,000 customer interviews, our #people-first approach highlights the power of data-driven decisions and customer focus. With 80% of the projects successfully invalidated, our innovation teams balancing business goals, customer needs, and technology. I’m proud of the #growthmindset of the teams. Even more exciting, our Innovation Framework has been nominated for the Werner-von-Siemens Award in the #PEOPLE category! 🎉   Huge thanks to Cedrik Neike and Verena B. for sharing this exciting surprise, and to all the #intrapreneurs driving this forward! 👏 

Is there such a thing as too much innovation? Under certain conditions, it could make sense to ask such a question …or, at least, to ask: is the type of innovation we are currently producing and the way we are doing it what we truly want…without making it a political discussion …rather a discussion on intelligent design and impact, in all its dimensions. My impression is that we do not reflect enough on the qualitative difference between the innovation which is produced by startups when they play the modern startup game and the innovation which is produced by existing firms. Corporates and existing firms can do amazing...but not by trying to do what startups do. They can do amazing when they manage to retain or, at least, not to frustrate #corporateexplorers – those individuals with a mission to build new and disruptive businesses inside their companies. When they and their teams can do their jobs, they can produce remarkable forms of innovation, with considerable impact. We, including myself, are skeptical about the ability of existing firms to innovate. This is probably an assumption which is too simplistic. This is what I learnt by listening to the testimony of great #corporateexplorers, Balaji Bondili, Yoky Matsuoka, and Yusuf J.. Thanks Andrew Binns and panelists for great insights on the work of corporate explorers. Overall, a wonderful event #Innov8rs in sunny and always inspiring #LosAngeles.

🚀 Unlocking Corporate Strengths with Innovation Hub Potentials 🌟 In today's fast-paced business realm, I still believe innovation hubs/labs/business units (you name them as you like) are the secret sauce for driving cutting-edge business strategies, whether they're amplifying the core business or revolutionizing it. But let's face it, many of these hubs are hitting roadblocks, struggling to hit their peak potential and get full acceptance by their corporate entity. At Excubate Corporate Startups, we're all about spotting the perfect synergy between corporate giants and innovation hubs, depending on where the innovation hub's compass points. It's not just about innovation for innovation's sake; it's about turbocharging innovation to supercharge core business functions, boost efficiency, and ultimately wow customers. Through a shared innovation vision, strategic direction, and a knack for partnerships, companies can tackle challenges head-on. The trick is to perfectly choreograph the fusion of corporate strategies and innovation ventures and craft the perfect playbook for each unique goal. To tackle this, we've distilled it down to six crucial success factors: 1️⃣ Strategic Orientation: Set clear goals to steer towards corporate nirvana 2️⃣ Innovation Horizon: Balance quick wins with game-changing projects for sustained success 3️⃣ Innovation Approach: Customize methodologies for maximum efficiency and customer satisfaction 4️⃣ Risk Allocation: Play the risk game smartly to foster a culture of boldness and resilience 5️⃣ Investment Horizon: Align resources and timelines to fuel innovation at every stage 6️⃣ Innovation Model: Craft a flexible model that adapts to any challenge and embraces teamwork And above all, make sure to measure what matters to gauge the true impact of innovation. By nailing these dimensions, we ensure that the collaboration between corporations and innovation hubs isn't just a tag team—it's a turbocharger for sustainable growth and innovation. #CorporateInnovation #InnovationHub #CollaborationModel #SuccessMetrics #InnovationCulture #BusinessTransformation #StrategicPartnerships #DigitalTransformation #TechInnovation #LeadershipDevelopment #DisruptiveTechnology #StartupEcosystem #Entrepreneurship #InnovationManagement #AgileStrategy #CreativeCollaboration

Most corporate innovation is a failure. Companies go through the motions, without really changing how they or their employees think. What is prevailing: - Quick Fixes or jugaad to firefight loosing situation in market - Thrust on Small and insignificant improvement to increase efficiencies - Leadership’s short term myopic vision driven by quarterly results - Over dependence on the research and development department This leads to zero visibility to disruptive innovation about to happen due to customers' dynamic needs. Realistically, it takes about 5 years of sustained effort to discover breakthrough disruptive innovation as it is always outside of companies' reach. Hence, leadership needs to drive: - Cultural change from top down - Embrace "Open Innovation" - collaborate and co-create - Mindset change- customer focus than product focus - Capture innovation early to address customer new & latent dynamic needs. Too many corporate companies set up an ‘innovation unit’, hire some Chief Innovation Officer and expedite expensive M&A activities to empty the companies' coffers rather than discovering, nurturing and embracing innovative startups addressing the same or similar needs. In reality, companies need to invest in building an “Open Innovation Platform” to attract, curate and support innovation with knowledge, mentoring, monitoring, and funding startups more than ever before. And then be patient with the results. Talk to us and we will help you understand more about the “Open Innovation Platform”.

The Role of Start-Ups in Driving Innovation and Economic Growth Start-ups play a crucial role in driving innovation and economic growth. They often bring new and disruptive ideas to the market, challenge the status quo, and create new job opportunities. They also play a key role in driving competition, which pushes established companies to innovate and improve their own offerings. #Start-UpInnovation #EconomicGrowth #JobCreation #MarketDisruption #CompetitiveAdvantage
