Responsible Innovation (Online Advanced Training)
Registrations closed.
It is widely accepted that enterprises, whether for-profit or not, rely on the efficiency of their innovation capabilities to fuel their growth. Innovation, therefore, is one of the key levers that determine the long-term success of organizations.
However, it is also widely known that innovation is a risky and expensive business, and most innovation initiatives fail in achieving their economic goals. This high unsuccessful rate could be even higher because the focus is predominantly on the economic and not on the social and environmental elements.
This training activity intends to present an integrated approach that aims to help for-profit organizations face these challenges. Businesses can use this formation to be better prepared to attract funds and cultivate responsible innovation initiatives. The responsible innovation approach is based on the strategic combination of three core disciplines: innovation management, circular economy, and sustainable development, through the application of agile methodologies and international standards.
This 12-hour course consists of nine online sessions, taking place on the 27th, 28th, 30th of September, and the 1st of October.
