Today’s business context is asking us as innovation teams to change what we’re doing and how we’re doing that, in order to deliver impact.

In 2026, success in corporate innovation isn’t measured by how many cool ideas are generated or shiny pilots were launched— it’s about how innovation translates into tangible business outcomes. Budget cuts, executive pressure, and the rise of AI have forced us to get brutally clear about what actually drives results.

During our recent Y2026 BoostCamp program we discussed what that means in practice:
·      how to gain and keep leadership support and strategic alignment?
·      what are low-budget-high-impact innovation instruments/approaches?
·      how to leverage AI for innovation throughout the end-to-end process?
·      and how to shift the culture/mindset across the org, to be able to act faster?

We captured the many in-depth conversations during the week, together with insights from other recent sessions within the community on the same topic, in a new “Innovation Impact in 2026” guide. Subscribe below to get access to the guide.
