Predicting Innovation: Three Horizons Model

What is innovation? Today we continue this discussion, specifically drilling into the three horizons model for creating growth and value.

We spend a lot of time talking about how companies innovate using that model, what it means and what are examples of it? How does that spark take place? We bridge you further down the innovation learning process in this meeting.

Innovators vs Techno Optimists

We discuss innovation, a favorite topic of ours, today. Instead of diving in for a structured conversation, we dove at the bait that was offered by Marc Andreessen in his techno optimist manifesto. If you haven’t read it, I would suggest taking a moment to read it before you listen to the rest of the podcast, but you do not have to!

It is definitely an interesting opinion piece about the power of innovation, which is why it was a good input for our discussion. We have our own unique perspective and a robust discussion about how innovation should work that tees up further conversations about the three horizons model for innovation.
