&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;span class=&quot;tspeaker&quot;&gt;Speaker:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;speaker&quot;&gt;Timothy Coffey&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;span class=&quot;tdescription&quot;&gt;Event Details:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;div class=&quot;description&quot;&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 0pt&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong style=&quot;font-size: 10pt&quot;&gt;An engaging interactive presentation that challenges key myths of innovation and provides strategic inspiration to improve innovation success.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: DINPro-Regular; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-theme-font: major-bidi; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 10pt&quot;&gt;Consumers are embracing change and adopting new products and services earlier and faster than ever. The need for your company to innovate is constant, and if you don't, your competitors will. Tim will share&amp;nbsp;the insight&amp;nbsp;he has used while working with companies such as &lt;strong&gt;Kellogg&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Johnson &amp;amp; Johnson&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Kraft&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;ConAgra&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Heinz&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Tyson&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Nestle&lt;/strong&gt;, and &lt;strong&gt;Purina&lt;/strong&gt; - the secrets to reducing risks while creating game-changing ideas. His presentation, just like his book, will set the record straight, while helping you acquire valuable insights into your customer. Ideas are easy; innovation is hard.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
