Innovating in a start-up and in a multinational corporation in Spain
18 January 2017 - 1:00pm to 2:00pm
Ponente(s): 
Pablo Molinero, Technical Manager in the Global Customer Unit for the Telefonica Group, Ericsson
Lugar: 

Sala 1.1/2 IMDEA Networks Institute, Avda. del Mar Mediterráneo 22, 28918 Leganés – Madrid

Organización: 
NETCOM Research Group (Telematics Engineering Department, UC3M); IMDEA Networks Institute

In this talk, Pablo Molinero will provide a personal view about innovation in Spain, based on his personal experience when working in a startup company and a multinational corporation. Innovation is not just the process of coming up with a brilliant idea; it also includes the processes of adapting it to the market needs, marketing it to customers and stake holders and making it a true product.

The innovation process in a startup is lean, agile and chaotic by nature. At the same time a startup offers fewer resources, especially in Spain, so one has to be smart to overcome this limitation. A startup provides a lot of freedom and upsides.

A multinational corporation has a well-oiled machinery that can put innovation in the market very fast. It has greater resources for innovation and creating a true product, but it also has a lot of bureaucracy and internal processes. Life is more predictable in many senses.
