Competenze, strategie e modelli di business a supporto del processo innovativo nelle imprese

Le aziende in tutti i settori oggi devono stare al passo con il ritmo dell’evoluzione tecnologica per non rischiare di perdere quote di mercato.
Le risorse di ricerca e sviluppo stanno diventando un fattore cruciale di successo, tuttavia nel mercato del lavoro si avverte la scarsità di professionisti ICT opportunamente preparati per svolgere questo genere di attività.
In questo contesto, la collaborazione con le start-up rappresenta un modo per gestire il processo di innovazione digitale nelle grandi aziende, per renderlo più veloce e più efficiente. La sessione analizza esempi reali di progetti di Open Innovation, in particolare per quanto riguarda l’introduzione di tecnologie chiave quali AI, IoT e Blockchain.

Key Takeaways

ROUND TABLE

Tech start-ups, scale-ups and SMEs face specific challenges regardless of the industry they are in. Typical questions to address are “How to get a solution ready for the mass production if perhaps only a non-functional prototype is available?” “What are the most effective tools for product development?” “What are the requirements to access the target market (e.g. different battery laws applied in each country)?” “How long does it take to reach the full-potential market?” Last but not least, “Who are the best technology partners to shake hands with?”

For many techpreneurs, the process to answer all these questions is a rollercoaster! It is a tough task to identify the do`s and don’ts in scaling up a business solution. Moreover, opening a way for corporates to join the game and supporting innovative entrepreneurs is of importance too.

At IOTHINGS Milan 2019, the Innovation World Cup® Series, the world-leading open innovation platform in the Internet of Things, will welcome a selection of the leading tech players and ground-breaking scale-ups for an insightful round table to provide IoT start-ups, scale-ups and SMEs the answers and tools to thrive their innovation further, and achieving a win-win cooperation strategy.

Key Takeaways
