Maschinenraum Innovation Management Circle
In our Innovation Management Circle, we bring together participants with different expertise: those responsible for innovation in the core businesses and experts in validating new ideas. The exchange aims towards establishing a connection between our members and fosters discussion on challenges as well as learning experiences.
The Challenge
Secure competitiveness
German Mittelstand stands for technology and innovation leadership worldwide. However, many medium-sized companies still lack the necessary innovation competence and posses a rather low awareness of culture that secures their long-term competitive position.
The Strategy
Central innovation units
The creation of central innovation units is intended to ensure and continuously transfer technological trends, sociological change and new business models to one's own core business. Ideas should be validated accordingly and supported in their implementation.
Innovation Management Circle
Mittelstand’s requirements for innovation management are rather individual and as diverse as their organization is. The Maschinenraum invites its members to learn together and from each other.

Vehicle and Team

3

4

How do I involve the relevant people and get to the implementation-potential employees?
5
Involvement & Traction
How do we create and receive the necessary buy-in for management as well as employees?
