    Join us at SMS 2024 for an insightful discussion on Rethinking Speed and Innovation with a panel of distinguished experts:

    Jochen Koch, professor at Viadrina University in Frankfurt (Oder), and Paul Spee from the University of Queensland Business School will share their perspectives grounded in their latest research. Peter Jaeger, a technology expert and former MD at Microsoft Europe, along with Anna-Lena Lorenz, Innovation Manager at ABN Amro Bank, will offer practical insights from their extensive industry experience.

    In today's rapidly evolving world, companies face relentless pressure to innovate swiftly and adapt to ongoing economic, social, and technological changes. While terms like scaling, acceleration, and speed are often equated with success, many innovation initiatives falter under the demands for quick results and short-term gains.

    This session will critically explore whether "faster is always better," challenging entrenched assumptions and examining where this approach reaches its limits.

    Date and Time: Sunday, October 20, 2024, 11:15 AM
    Location: SMS Conference, Istanbul

    My co-organizers, Sarah Stanske and Yanis Hamdali, and I look forward to welcoming you!
