The toolbox of the programme
The interactive lectures by senior Solvay faculty make you step back to absorb and internalize the fundamentals of the complex landscape of innovation. The live case studies with successful entrepreneurs and investors provide a framework for how these best practices are applied.
The mix of relevant, applicable theory and real-life practical insights makes this program tailor-made for professionals who are interested in going beyond generating creative ideas. We’ll tell you how to turn them into successful businesses by developing core intrapreneurial innovation leadership, strategy, culture, and process capabilities.
