There is a popular belief that innovation in large organizations happens inside labs by people wearing white lab coats or by scientists in research and development departments. Well, they are good at inventing but not necessarily innovating.

A company’s best sources of original ideas are its own employees who know the market, the customers, and the company well. So, what stops corporates from putting trust in their employees?

Find out on Friday, November 24, as we invite Kapil Kane, Director of Innovation at Intel to discuss how large organizations can innovate by listening to their own employees. At Intel, he runs Ideas2Reality — an innovation program that empowers and enables employees to realize their ideas.

Kapil will examine the concept of intrapreneurship (entrepreneurship from inside a company), key qualities of a good intrapreneur and what organizations can do to foster intrapreneurship. Additionally, he will provide examples of the effects of supporting intrapreneurs and the results of not doing so.

Kapil will conclude with a call to action to both employees and employers and show you why intrapreneurship is the future of work.

Fresh Start warmly welcomes all to attend, listen and ask questions.
