Innovation Internships

Innovation Internships

Business schools and companies should provide more internships dedicated to innovation to help infuse organizations with innovation processes and techniques. Currently, most MBA internships focus on traditional core functions like finance, marketing, and strategy, but non-technical B-School programs are missing a key opportunity. The best internships offer the intern an opportunity to learn from the company, while also allowing the company to learn from the intern. The key success factors for innovation internships include selection, sponsorship, and structure.
