Keynote Speaker on Innovation

What is Innovation?

Innovation is defined as the process or ability to create something new. This could be an idea, a methodology, an application, or a concept that can be implemented to create a truly unique product, service or offering.

To John, ‘innovation’ is the driving force for progress. Without it, the products, services, technologies and applications we see today wouldn’t exist. When infused in current, present-day decision-making, innovative thought and application can lead to finding new and better ways to solve problems, serve society, and meet the needs of customers and stakeholders.

To John, ‘innovation’ is about more than just thinking differently:

It's about learning from the past without recreating it
It's about challenging readily accepted notions of society and the status quo
It's about welcoming change and adopting an adaptability mindset, rather than fearing the unknown
It's about looking at problems with a 'solution' mindset, rather than a 'problem-based' one
It's about challenging assumptions and pushing the boundaries of what's possible

For businesses that are creating, producing and executing in today’s world, who want to remain relevant and profitable in the future, innovation is key to the success of their livelihood.

As today’s rapidly changing business landscape evolves at super speed with the onset of technology and artificial intelligence, businesses and organisations need to infuse innovation into all processes. This will help them evolve alongside markets and consumers so that they can maintain a competitive edge and stand the test of time.
