Description

Following the devastating Russian invasion of Ukraine, MITRE went into action. Learn about MITRE’s rapid response to support Ukraine by developing practical technology-based solutions, ranging from refugee tracking to defense to war crimes documentation, within months of program launch. This session will outline how MITRE’s culture, with a corporate-value foundation of speed, risk taking, and collaboration, enables employees to respond to situations and develop critical solutions at the speed of need. This case study presentation will discuss how MITRE was quickly able to bring diverse cross-organizational expertise to bear in response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and how these practices can be applied to your organization's innovation initiatives.

As part of the presentation, the presenters will leverage the MITRE Innovation Toolkit to guide participants through identification of barriers and opportunities within their own organizations. Participants will be exposed to techniques and approaches to breeding an innovative, adaptable environment where speed, risk taking, and collaboration is rewarded.
