WOBI on Innovation, New York, June 4-5, 2014 at the AXA Equitable Center, NYC
Technological advances are enabling revolutionary changes across industries and throughout every sector of business.
Disruption is rife
In 2014 WOBI on Innovation invites you to embrace disruption and learn to thrive in the chaos.
Disruption can be a tremendous source of opportunity and new value. It can also be scary and at times seemingly easier to bury our heads in the sand when faced with new challenges. But for those willing to embrace it, disruption can be a powerful propellant of positive change. WOBI on Innovation will focus on the multifarious disruptions that are impacting business – and the massive upside opportunities they present for those alert and nimble enough to both spot them and react accordingly.
