CHANCE IS INNOVATION MANAGEMENT
Innovation is the key word for all entrepreneurial activities. Innovation doesn’t only concern high tech projects; it’s not just a specialization of avant-garde sectors. It needs to be an integral part of all organizations, in that it has to reflect the ability to innovate so as to reflect the market you operate to make sure that the right choices are made. Competing purely on the basis of product leadership is no longer enough.
Talking about innovation really means talking about the future. It means being aware that innovation is the only way for our enterprises to be competitive, to create value, new jobs and consequently the future. Innovative products and technologically advanced production systems are important but only if accompanied by organizational contexts able to interpret the new constantly evolving competitive scenarios. Innovating means knowing how to draw up innovative business models, exploring new opportunities even beyond our reference market and at times it means being able to identify our blue ocean.
Innovation & Entrepreneurship, Innovation & Strategy, Innovation & Development, Innovation & Leadership represent the life blood that runs through the main variables which are at the heart of growth and development for a new competition in today’s world. New market situations call for new entrepreneurial models, new management tools and new organizational models.
Hence Chance, which stands for innovation at the service of entrepreneurship and management.
