Accelerating Innovation in 2026: Culture, Partnerships and the Stories That Stick

​Innovation is no longer just about generating ideas - it's about creating the conditions for those ideas to scale, survive and deliver real-world impact.

​This is not your typical panel. In this open, rotating discussion, innovators, corporate leaders, and policymakers don't just watch - they step in, swap seats, and shape the conversation in real time around what it takes to accelerate innovation in 2026.

​Beginning with a focused inner discussion between a curated group of voices, the session then opens up to the room - inviting participants to join the table and add their perspective. Together, the group will examine how organisations build cultures where radical ideas thrive, what corporates are really looking for in partnerships, and crucially, how to tell stories that cut through.
