Innovation Leader Events
You won’t find the usual PowerPoints, panels, and vendor exhibits at Innovation Leader events.
Instead, we create useful and in-depth experiences that take you inside the most innovative spaces in the world to interact with the teams running those centers, and host informal, interactive whiteboard sessions that connect you with your peers to share best practices, compare approaches, and explore solutions to common challenges.
Whether you attend one of our Field Studies, our annual Impact conference, or our regional Member Roundtables, or our new one-day Deep Dive event, you’ll benefit from the high-level information exchange and networking opportunities that are Innovation Leader hallmarks.
Join us for our upcoming Cleveland Field Study in June, and our big annual conference, Impact, in October.

Many of our participants return to our sold-out events year after year.

Innovation Leader Field Studies
Our Field Studies provide an engaging and collaborative forum for innovation executives, enabling them to visit other innovation spaces, share war stories, and benefit from the insight of their peers.
We’ve taken Field Study participants to more than two-dozen innovation spaces at the world’s best-known brands, including Adobe, BMW, CVS, Fidelity, Google, Johnson & Johnson, MasterCard, Starbucks, Twitter, and Visa and many others.
Have a look at the photo galleries from our past Field Studies and see what participants had to say about these one-of-a-kind events.
Cleveland Field Study
Join Innovation Leader as we head to Cleveland for two days of site visits and learning activities at the most innovative companies in the world.
Our first Field Study in Ohio will cover a range of topics important to corporate innovation, strategy, and R&D leaders — with a special focus on how you create the right partnerships with business units and other functions to make innovation an everyday occurrence, not an isolated initiative.
IMPACT 2018
Innovation Leader’s first annual member conference takes place in Boston, Oct. 16-18, 2018.
This can’t-miss event will focus on driving meaningful impact in corporate innovation.
