Chris Locke, CEO, Corporate Innovation, Rainmaking: “We developed Compass based upon our decade of experience building disruptive ventures and working with over 850 startups, to enable corporates to make effective bets to test where future value lies. Accelerating rates of disruption and adoption, across industries, are shattering the traditional business models, corporates have become so heavily reliant on. Corporates will not solve these challenges by looking backwards or reacting to disruption only when it happens, they need to be proactively looking at the future and thinking about how they can maintain and grow their value in rapidly changing environment.”
