This year the summit focuses on the vital role corporate innovation, new technology and disruptive industries can play in addressing social, economic and environmental need. Whether they are introducing a new product stream, working to remove harmful engine emissions, developing e-health initiatives or embracing new and disruptive technologies, corporations are seeking to meet society’s broad range of needs in a sustainable and profitable way.

Delegates will learn from those who are at the cutting-edge of innovation in corporate partnership, and breakout workshops will drill down on the critical barriers and opportunities confronting business, government and the not-for-profit sector.Sessions take place in interactive plenary sessions and in “innovation stations” where best practice is explored and arguments tested.
