Intrapeneurship and Harnessing Risk

Remix Summit | Sep 17, 2014

Companies in all industries struggle to find the right balance between structured efficiency and entrepreneurial flexibility. Publicly funded organisations feel an extra pressure to spend every penny wisely. This can sometimes mean we do not move quickly enough or seize new opportunities.

True innovation and transformative ideas come through taking calculated risks and allowing for failure. This panel explores how to do that responsibly and effectively.

John L.Gray, Director of the National Museum of American History, moderates the panel held at Google headquarters in Manhattan. You'll also hear:

Timothy J. McClimon, President, American Express Foundation
Duane Bray, Partner, IDEO
Rameet Chawla, Founder, Fueled

WNYC is podcasting all the panels at the Remix Summit, held in New York City on September 17-19.
