Startup culture has resulted in many of the innovations we all experience in our daily lives. While innovation is often linked to technology, most major innovations have more to do with the business model and practices used by the company and the people it serves. In this webinar, David Yiptong of Platform Calgary looked at five takeaways that any organization can learn from startup culture to help move their own organization forward.

This session discussed how organizations can:

  • use startups for inspiration based on culture and management, and

  • examine and challenge existing parts of the organization in order to foster innovation.
