Fostering a culture of innovation and new ideas comes from enabling creative people to think laterally. ITIC Chief Technology Officer Dr. Joachim Taiber and six other distinguished panelists will share how they do this for their respective organizations at the 8th Annual AmCham Germany Business Day on March 16. Held at the Porsche Experience Center in Atlanta, this year’s event is titled “Innovation Triangle: USA-Germany-Israel.” Speakers from all three countries will be featured throughout the day, sharing best practices designed to develop technological and business innovations.
