Open Innovation
Future leaders will be defined by their ability to work in ecosystems.
Large enterprises move from pyramid structures to dynamic, flat organizations. Traditional R&D departments are replaced or complemented with startup solutions. And companies do not imagine themselves as industries anymore - they think of themselves as a part of an ecosystem.
Combient is, by its nature, proving how companies can create these ecosystems to obtain business advantages: sharing knowledge, brand value and assets to reduce risk and increase speed.
