SAN JOSE, Calif. and SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., July 28, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Silicon Valley based Innovation Minds announced today that it will team up with InnovationOne of Scottsdale, Arizona. The join will tie together a foundational scientific, research-based approach for assessing and prescribing product innovation management capabilities and culture readiness with beautifully engaging, time saving Innovation Management software.
The result is an ability to create an internal environment that forms a foundation to lever value creation through innovation. It effectively reduces the number of vendor partners that organizations must pull in to start and sustain a program that moves ideas to the finish line and on to becoming products, services, and solutions without a lengthy cycle time.
Both companies attract a global audience, demystifying, facilitating, and guiding innovation cycles for diverse sectors including Manufacturing, Biosciences, Property and Casualty Insurance, Government, Construction, and Tech.
"Rarely does a game-changing idea emerge from the strategic planning process or from the thoughts and ideas of one employee," said Dr Brooke Dobni, PhD, founder of InnovationOne. "Rather, they originate from a culture and lean infrastructure that encourages ideas across the organization and its external ecosystem. This strategic alliance will allow organizations to take what is learned and put it into practical go-forward action with the Innovation Minds platform and to ultimately commercialize the best ideas."
"There is an enormous opportunity to bundle the collective capability to provide the most comprehensive solution together," said Bala Balasubramaniam, CEO of Innovation Minds. "This is a great partnership to provide more emphasis on solving what innovation leaders cite as the 4 main issues that derail their innovation efforts: Non-scalable processes to manage ideas thus limited yield; Culture that doesn’t support innovation & agility; Lack of strategic alignment and sponsorship; and Talent that isn’t engaged or motivated to participate. The Innovation Minds/InnovationOne partnership becomes even more relevant as companies now prepare for a total paradigm shift in how they do business.”
