Leading corporations from all sectors, the most attractive startups from different communities, scientists from the main research institutions, qualified investors and specialists on the hottest trends to an open innovation experience at USP Campus.
All corporations and professions are facing a world changing at an increasingly fast pace and where the continuous change is the new rule.
Professionals in every industry and functional area will do things differently tomorrow than they do today.
The quickening of technological and institutional change and rapid emergence of new customer needs means that established bases of competitive advantage are more frequently overturned. Yet, most firms are ill-equipped to develop new sources of competitive advantage and to create new high growth businesses.
To thrive in turbulent times, you and your organization must innovate smarter. But how?
The Oiweek Scibiz offers a structured program and curated content that will enable innovation practitioners to navigate through the very complex ways and topics on innovation.
Leading companies will be able to launch Open Innovation Challenges to startups and techs using the 100 Open Startups and 100 Open Techs platforms, and invite the most attractive for 20-minute face-to-face meetings during the Speed-dating at Oiweek SciBiz.
