• Setting up your first portfolio, thesis, and stages
• Metered funding and resources requests

About the speaker

As an innovation consultant for dozens of billion-dollar companies, an innovation researcher for MIT, and the innovation lead for Mark Cuban Companies, Rachel saw the same repeated challenges. The innovation field was set up for failure. She knew something needed to change. After more than 15 years of testing methodologies and processes to improve innovation outcomes, Rachel founded Productable, a SaaS startup enabling innovation at scale.
