Center for Management among the founding members of the Swiss Innovation Lab
Yesterday’s workshop “Building networks for managing discontinuous innovation” at the Lucerne School of Business ceremonially marked the foundation of the Swiss Innovation Lab. Alongside the Lucerne School of Business and institutes at the ETH Zurich, the Swiss Open University of Applied Sciences and the University of Fribourg, the Center for Management is among the Lab’s founding members. In close cooperation with business partners like Google Switzerland, Atizo AG or Cham Paper Group, the members meet the challenge of monitoring and triggering disruptive innovations that create new markets and set old ones on the edge.
