Transform R&D initiatives into profitable ventures. Inside large companies are billion-dollar ideas, hidden talent, and ready capital — a combination of resources and expertise that would be the envy of any startup. But most companies never realize the potential of this built-in advantage. Why? Because doing that requires them to think and act differently — to recapture the spirit, spark, scale, and speed of their entrepreneurial origins.
