The Australian Business Foundation seeks to sharpen our insights about innovation with a presentation by Professor David Gann, Head of Innovation and Entrepreneurship at the Innovation Studies Centre of Imperial College, London.

An international scholar for the 21st century, David Gann combines his academic research and writing with his work as a business strategist and adviser to companies in a wide range of industries including design, construction, manufacturing, engineering, ICT and healthcare.

Professor David Gann will share this rare mix of research and business expertise to describe the most potent tools and techniques that drive innovation.  Addressing the theme, Connect to Innovate, he points to new patterns of innovation open to today’s business leaders in modern knowledge-based economies. Here, the emerging techniques of the digital economy can be added to traditional engineering and technical skills for high-impact innovation.

You are invited to join us for Professor David Gann’s keynote presentation at the annual forum of the Australian Business Foundation, preceded by our Annual General Meeting.
