Overview
In an evolving landscape it’s critical that organisations foster a culture that can effectively drive and implement relevant innovations in a timely way. As new technologies emerge and new entrants disrupt traditional markets, publishing organisations are challenged to adapt in order to survive and thrive in the long term. Creating an innovative culture is just one part of the puzzle – how have other organisations addressed this issue? What tools and approaches can be utilised? What resources are needed? Can a startup be built from within? What lessons can be learnt from innovators and start-ups within the scholarly communications ecosystem? Join us for an agile discussion on how to think like a startup – to drive innovation and remove the barriers within.
