Identifies true IT Security innovation
How readily can you find true technology innovation from the claims of many small suppliers?
You almost certainly need innovative technology to fuel your push for competitive advantage. But when you look for it do you have time or resource to find it?
If yes, then you are in good company. Even before the credit crunch, corporate business has experienced much difficulty tracking down true innovation due to considerable background “noise” from a large number of supply companies all claiming to be innovative and relevant.
This situation looks set to get tougher. The fallout from the credit crunch is concentrating company boards on the need for innovation more than ever, at a time when they are also tightening on resource.
By demanding business clarity from innovators at an early stage through our reality check, the UKII helps sift out that “noise”.
We require innovators to express their ideas in business terms, directed at specific corporate “pain points” and aim to distinguish true innovation from “me-too”.
We also require clarity on how future-proofed and scalable their products are. UKII converts prospective ideas and innovative products from: “this might be worth looking at”, to: “this is worth looking at”.
This pre-sift is examined by our high-level Advisory Panel of senior corporate IT users (CIOs, CTOs and others) to help speed up the innovation discovery process for potential champions in large end-user organisations.
