The Keynote - Dr. Curtis Carlson - On Value Creation \& AI
The Keynote\nAlmost all senior executives say that improving their company's innovative performance is one of their most critical imperatives. We understand this issue because in hundreds of workshops with global companies we have found that less than 25% of their 鈥渕ost important鈥?initiatives would be successful if completed. They decide that; we just provide a missing framework for them to decide. Unfortunately, most innovation methodologies are either ineffective or do not fully respect the genius and humanity of their teams.\nCome and join an exciting event where we will explore accelerating the learning and value creation process by using AI-Tutors with world-leading value creation methodology.\nNew AI tools are helping teams rapidly understand core value creation concepts, creating new insights, mitigating risks, and rapidly and cost-effectively creating value propositions for new, proposed innovations.\nAbout the Keynote Speaker\nDr. Curtis Carlson is recognized as a pioneer in developing value creation practices that profoundly improve an enterprise鈥檚 innovative performance. He was formerly CEO of SRI International in Silicon Valley from 1998 to 2014. During this time, SRI's revenue tripled, and SRI became recognized as one of the world's most productive innovation enterprises, having helped create Siri, HDTV, Intuitive Surgical, and other world-changing innovations.\nHe started his career at RCA and then GE before joining SRI. He is currently Distinguished Executive in Residence at Worcester Polytechnic Institute.\nWith William Wilmot he wrote the book "Innovation:
  The Five Disciplines for Creating what Customers Want," which was selecte
 d by BusinessWeek as a Top-10 Business Book. It describes the innovation p
 rinciples he learned that significantly improve innovative output.\nHe has
  helped create over two dozen new companies and his teams have won two Emm
 ys, including one for HDTV. He is a member of the National Academy of Inve
 ntors and has advised ministers and prime ministers around the world on in
 novation practices and innovation policy. He was a member of President Oba
 ma's National Advisory Council on Innovation and Entrepreneurship.\n\n\n\n
