Event Details
Aims:
To ensure that innovation delivers meaningful value to the client (user or customer), technological solutions need to be considered in the context of environment (ecosystem), economy and marketplace. This CoL event will introduce community members to techniques that quantify ‘value’, opportunity and risk in business and operational terms alongside a method to manage the virtuous circle that connects innovators with users and suppliers with investors.
Objectives:
To share the perspectives of stakeholders, influencers, innovators, suppliers and the demands driven by each. The proposed methodology enables an innovation ecosystem to recognise value in a number of different forms which may be attuned to the business priorities of all participants.
The attendees will learn:
What is the economic landscape for businesses looking like - considering post-Brexit challenge and opportunity
What the innovation challenges are for the UK defence and security ecosystem and how they are being met
How a business may embrace strategic value management in a challenging marketplace to derive value from the opportunity afforded by effective innovation across all sectors
How, through an SME case study, an innovative capability may be applied to the Defence and Security market and how stakeholder benefits may be realised
How BAR Associates are supporting innovators and the ecosystem and how the approach to doing business in the sector can enhance productivity
Understanding how new concepts such as Idea Flow, as a measure of organisational effectiveness across Team Defence, can offer enhanced interoperability and coherence within complex supply chains
Who will benefit from attending:
Representatives from Defence and Aerospace primes with responsibility for innovation programmes
SME members keen to understand community engagement and innovation
MOD staff involved with innovation initiatives
Trade bodies looking to take new perspectives on the innovation challenge and how to drive value out of capability already existing within their membership,
