If you have "innovation" or "open innovation" in your
job title or in your job description you need to be at
CoDev. It doesn't matter if you are an expert or a
beginner, this conference is very relevant.
(Sean Warren, Pure Insight)
If you are new to Open
Innovation, or if it is happening on an ad hoc basis
in your organization, this conference helps you
organize thoughts and provide structure to bank on
power of Open Innovation.
(Manish Shah, National Starch & Chemical)
My expectations are generally quite low for such
conferences, but this one far exceeded them. Many of the
presenters are highly educated and accomplished and
effectively share their knowledge.
(Jonathan Miner, Bissell Homecare Inc.)
Very worthy conference to
attend, great opportunity to meet with real people
who practice Open Innovation and a chance to share
personal experience.
(Ravi Mulukutla, Meadwestvaco Corporation)
It’s rare to find a balance of
academic, applied and practical insight in one location,
and MRT and PDMA has created an outstanding opportunity
for peer-to-peer networking. Highly recommended!
(Randy Iliff, Bit7)
Great sharing of ideas and
concepts by all participants. Real-time, immediate
value. Very, very impressed with consistent high
quality of speakers – that’s rare at this type of
conference.
(Craig Rethwell, The Kellogg Company )
I was encouraged to see and hear a
broad spectrum of interest on innovation as well as
examples and guidance.
(Jack Ring, Cyon Research )
I came into the Congress with
a little knowledge of CoDev and Open Innovation. I
am coming out with a lot of questions…and that is
exactly what I needed to understand. Open innovation
is about asking the right questions, finding the
right partners and staying alert in continuing to
ask those questions keeping the end goal in mind.
(Marie-Claude Cote, Centre du Recherche)
I came away with some very
valuable thought nuggets on approaching IP in a
co-development environment! I look forward to my next
opportunity to put some of these ideas into action.
(David Maltz, Nektar Therapeutics)
Very buttoned down. Runs like
clockwork.
(Brian Matt, Altitude Inc.)
The conference delivered on what
it promised: what seemed like issues in collaborative
development were merely challenges.
(Morne Barradas, Sasol Technology)
Well worth my time. Next time,
I am bringing engineering directors --alliances all
too often perceived as the business person's
problem.
(Kathy Miller, Hewlett-Packard)
A lot of great examples and models
for reapplication. Great source of contacts for
benchmarking. I feel confident we know where we need to
start and have knowledge of how to get there.
(Michele Cerminaro, GOJO Industries)
Excellent Networking
Opportunity. Very Helpful content. I feel a sense of
focus to go back and implement some of the best
practices that have been shared. I will certainly
recommend this conference to others within my
company.
(Jennifer Duggan, Nestle)
