Who They Are

The people who co-create the future — behind your work

An Innovation360 Fellow doesn't just practise innovation management — they co-create the future on Innovation360's framework and methodology, built on a century of peer-reviewed research, and carry its message to the world. Authors, professors, ISO contributors and keynote voices, each holding IMBB (1st Dan) or higher — among the most recognized in the field anywhere in the world.

What This Means for Your Organization

You don't hire consultants. You gain the field's leading minds.

Published, cited, proven

The thinking behind your engagement isn't opinion. Fellows write the books, publish IEEE and peer-reviewed research, and helped shape the ISO 56000 family — so your strategy rests on a century of evidence. Their books carry forewords from Philip Kotler, ESA astronaut Christer Fuglesang, Johan Roos and Leif Edvinsson.

Senior, global and hands-on

The Fellows lead work across 105 countries — authors, professors, ISO contributors and senior strategists, from ex-McKinsey, BCG and NASA. You engage with genuine seniority and local depth, not a rotating bench of juniors.

The people who set the standard

You are advised by the reference points of the field — recognized by Copenhagen Business School, Georgetown, Parsons School of Design and IEEE. When they define what good looks like, your organization gets the definition first.

Some view innovation as serendipity. We have shown, through decades of research applied in practice, that it is a capability — one that can be measured, built and aimed. If it can be aimed, it can be aimed at the goals that matter most to you.
