A key lesson from the COVID-19 crisis is that organisations need to drive up their innovation capabilities to maintain and optimise business value. And this requires a baseline that objectively defines your innovation-related capabilities.

This government registered Certification Trade Mark Scheme for Innovation offered by the IKE Institute will help to establish that much needed baseline and address questions above.
