20 Years of FEI
20 Years of FEI with Peter Koen
Peter Koen provides an overview of the past 20 years of Front End of Innovation (FEI). The history of FEI is littered with proof that the show introduces a trend before it’s a trend. FEI has continually provided a platform for how best to engage transformational innovation.
To date, eight pillars of innovation have emerged: Innovation Strategy; Creativity & Culture; Open Innovation; Human Centered Design; Ambidextrous Leadership; Business Model Innovation; Lean Startup and Corporate Venturing. Koen reviews each pillar, when it made its debut at FEI. and next steps.
Over, the approach to innovation has evolved. While common themes have emerged, different organizations have chosen distinct paths. Front End of Innovation returns October 19-21 in Boston, MA to celebrate lessons learned together in person.
