Boxing match Toma vs Haneng: Innovation Art or Science

Innovation thought leader Dan Toma, author of the bestselling corporate innovation book The Corporate Startup and I agree on a lot of topics when it comes to corporate innovation. But we also strongly disagree on certain topics. Earlier this year Dan and I agreed on an (intellectual) boxing match, and let the audience decide who is right by voteing on the winner. All in good fun and moderated by the great Tanja Kufner.

The match went over three rounds:
Round 1: What’s the purpose of corporate innovation?
Round 2: Who is better at innovation, startups or corporations?
Round 3: Do companies need a measurements framework to manage innovation?
