The Innovation Project

The Innovation Project™ will reshape how the industry creates, innovates, and acknowledges and celebrates its innovators. Held from March 20-21, 2013, The Innovation Project™ will bring together the movers and shakers who are the forefront of commerce innovation on the campus of Harvard University. Together, we will advance the innovation agendas for the entire payments industry!

The Innovation Project’s very own ThinkAThon will assemble 15 teams who will collaborate – and compete – to create frameworks for solving the industry-wide challenges creating friction in today’s commerce ecosystem. The Innovators Expo will take idea incubation to new levels of collaboration by matching brand new innovators with strategic partners and enablers to transform commerce. Six “up close and personal” live cases will pair celebrated thought leaders with the Captains of Industry to show all of us how they’ve applied their principles for innovation to their own organizations. Product launch pads will give innovators of all shapes and sizes a forum for creatively introducing new solutions to those who are best able to scale them in the marketplace.

And when our work is done, the 2013 PYMNTS.com Innovators Award Program will honor the accomplishments of those who have brought innovation to life in payments followed by the Crystal Ball, where we will party ’til they throw us off campus!
