How can you create a winning internal corporate culture similarly to how the Apple corporation tackled it? How can the Internet of Things help in transforming a big established company? How should corporations tackle the optimal establishment of their own programmes for encouraging intrapreneurship and collaboration with startups? And finally – how can the foundation of a corporate venture capital fund be supported by the European Commission with the EFSI fund through the European Investment Bank?
These are currently very hot topics faced by managers of big established companies who wish to improve their market position with help of lean and agile startup innovation and the corporate culture that favors it. Chuck Goldman, the esteemed investor from Boston, executive director for IoT at Sky Ventures Group and former Apple executive is returning to Slovenia soon after the conclusion of this year’s PODIM Conference, this time as a member of the PODIM management team. Together with Peter Jacobson, European Investment Bank head of office in Slovenia, he will lead an exclusive daylong #InvestEU PODIM corpo workshop.
