Corporate Startup Week
October 23rd-25th, 2024
2024 Theme - Accelerating Innovation: Driving Value to Scale
Speed and scale are often viewed as mutually exclusive - but companies need to demonstrate both - the ability to move quickly on disruptive innovation opportunities, and to generate meaningful value from them. As AI, Robotics and other leading technologies are being deployed across industries, finding the alignment between speed and scale is critical to ensuring success.
The 2024 CSL Corporate Entrepreneurship Forum, Accelerating Innovation: Driving Value to Scale will feature a packed program highlighting the newest ideas and trends, example case studies and insightful conversation from leading innovators from industry, venture and academia.
This event is perfect for those who want to immerse themselves into the stimulating conversation to learn what’s new, what’s working (and not working) and how to drive value to scale.
