We will be featuring a series entitled, 'Voices From Last Year' to highlight key themes that BEI Back End of Innovation attendees took away
from last year's event.
BEI is all about the strategy and execution of innovation. It's
a conference where the entire innovation process comes to life- from leadership
& organizational structure, to optimizing the idea portfolio, to process
and strategy, to commercializing new ideas, ultimately driving bottom line
profitability.

At BEI 2012 Dr.
Hitendra Patel
, Innovation Professor, Hult Founder, IXL-Center, discussed what
it takes to be a successful innovator.

Do
you agree with Dr. Patel? What do you think are the key characteristics of a successful
innovator? Share your thoughts with us!
