Consumer-Focused R&D and Innovation in the Wake of Economic Downturn

26 - 27 November 2020

Live Streaming and On-Demand

What is the effect of the CV19 on R&D co-creation and cooperation across industries?

CV19 makes it certainly pretty complex to interact physically across-industry in co-creation though in the fight against CV19, creative solutions were developed to fight the virus, certainly always organised via phone or chat

How does this crisis drive innovation? What are the most ground-breaking changes?

I can see innovation through the many hackathons that are taking place globally, trying to develop solutions against the pandemic by hacking existing solutions from other fields. This is certainly driving innovation from grassroots levels to corporate.

Where are technological innovations heading in the next 5 years? How do you see the future of innovations in R&D?

Today is the time to invest in R&D so you can be ahead of the game though the fear is that companies have to save money and will thus reduce R&D spending. Nevertheless Innovation might get empowered differently since people tend to be more creative when solutions are needed and funds are restricted thus i am pretty positive R&D will be more innovative to make the most out of being 'reduced to the max'.

Can you name 3 major innovations related to business model/innovation strategy?

Apple watch, Berlkoenig, AirBnB, LIME

This marcus evans event will explore how to deliver the value you promised with the right PPM strategy, performance tracking and resource allocation. Our unique cross-industry event will discuss the future of PPM and how innovation and disruption will impact project management. We will explore practical points that are rarely raised such as performance measurement approaches in portfolio management, how to do portfolio value assessments to arrive at the right prioritization, how to manage capacities and do smart resource allocation, and how to setup project portfolio management in the first place. We will discuss the value of PMO, and how to bring in agile where appropriate. By joining our conference, you will learn from and brainstorm with your peers, and move your thinking and practice of PPM forward.

Your safety is our top priority.
