The Boston Consulting Group has just released its 11th annual “Most Innovative Companies” report. The research ranks the world’s 50 most innovative companies based on a survey of 1,500 senior executives representing a wide range of industries in every region.
BCG noted the increasing imperative for companies to bring in innovations from outside.
“Given faster-changing markets—and the fact that even in more traditional sectors technology is becoming a key differentiator—a not-invented-here mindset can be fatal,” said BCG partner and report coauthor Andrew Taylor.
