Chairperson's Corner

A Special Message from Cheryl Perkins...

It seems like I just finished recapping everything that took place at CoDev2009, and now the opening of CoDev2010 is less than four months away! I am excited to report that this year’s agenda is sure to overwhelm attendees with a powerful representation of open innovation thought and action leaders who have committed to share their experience and experiences with us.

Everyone involved with CoDev2010 is extremely proud of the evolution of this event. What started as a relatively small, informal gathering among open innovation pioneers is now the longest-running and undisputed leading source for open innovation learning. We are a global community providing insights, writing books and giving seminars on building cultures and structures of innovation in a dizzying array of industries and organizations.

What we have planned for CoDev2010 maintains that evolutionary trajectory.
