Business Opportunity for Partners, Workshops on Open Innovation

I am developing a workshop that looks into the next steps of open innovation. See my first take below.

I would like to offer this workshop in innovation hubs around the world and I am thus looking for local partners that would like to work with me on this.

In order for this to be worthwhile for you, your organization as well as myself, we need to be able to generate USD 10-20,000 in revenues. I can of course tailor the workshop the needs in your region and we can discuss our respective roles and the revenue split.

This open call for partners might be a bit unusual, but let’s see what happens.

Workshop description:

Next Steps on Open Innovation

Many companies are moving beyond the basics of open innovation making this new paradigm of innovation even more complex, challenging – and rewarding. This is the outset for this workshop by open innovation expert, Stefan Lindegaard in which you will get these benefits:

• insights on how open innovation impacts management, organizational issues
• examples on how to build physical as well as virtual open innovation networks
• an understanding on how social media tools can impact open innovation efforts
• an overview of the mindset and skills needed to succeed with open innovation

This will be an interactive workshop in which Stefan Lindegaard starts conversations on the above topics. Lindegaard will share his views, but does not have all the answers so your input and insights are highly appreciated in a workshop where we all learn from each other.
