Seminar Instructor: Dr. Jay Paap

 

This comprehensive seminar uses a workshop or hands-on approach. It includes, lecture and discussion sessions, question-and-answer periods, and illustrations by way of experiences and examples in other companies. It provides you with the knowledge and examples needed to return to your own business and begin implementation by extensively covering on how to:

  1. Assess your sourcing culture and when it makes sense to look outside
  2. Find new technologies and how to select the right matches  
  3. Structure external sourcing relationships and create effective IP frameworks
  4. Set up a scouting program that works for you

Technology scouting, open innovation, and connect + develop have become buzzwords that often lead firms to look outside for technologies and products just because it is fashionable.  Knowing when and how to look, and understanding the challenges as well as the benefits involved in integrating external sources are critical to making these fads useful tools in your development programme.  Join me in this exciting and practical seminar where we look at how the most innovative firms have used external sourcing over the last four decades to quickly develop and launch new products and services
