R&D is the driving force behind innovation, yet many enterprises struggle to translate ambitious ideas into real-world impact. This talk examines the common challenges faced by R&D teams, software engineers, and leadership—bridging technical ideation with customer value, managing risk, and aligning innovation with business objectives. Through practical strategies and real-world examples, we’ll explore how to create structured yet flexible approaches that support experimentation, de-risk decision-making, and drive meaningful outcomes. This session is designed for those looking to make R&D a true engine of growth within their organizations.
