The two-day virtual event will focus on driving a sustainability advantage through values-based innovation.

Wilmington, Delaware — Planbox is hosting its upcoming Imagine Innovation Conference online from May 10 to 11, 2022. Held annually, Planbox Imagine is a conference for collective learning on all things innovation, with discussions revolving around innovation challenges, possible solutions, and new approaches.

“Planbox Imagine opens a window into what Planbox clients and peers are doing well. Event-goers will have a unique opportunity to hear their stories first-hand, to have their most pressing questions answered, and to take home some valuable insights that can’t be found anywhere else,” said Sara Husk, Chief Customer Officer of Planbox.

This year’s event spotlights the intersection of innovation and sustainable development, and how values-based innovation can equally benefit the organization and society. To this end, Planbox executives and partners will reveal key findings of the 2022 State of Corporate Innovation Survey, in which 123 innovation professionals shared their organization’s plans to support the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development — a call-to-action for large organizations to collectively tackle the world’s toughest sustainability challenges.

Last year’s conference centered on the Future-Fit Manifesto, a strategic framework that lends itself to this year’s theme on sustainable transformation. As pressure mounts to achieve global resilience by 2030, thought leaders behind the manifesto will be in attendance for a second consecutive year to propose strategies on how to drive a sustainability advantage through innovation in support of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

“Business models that overlook society and the environment are unsustainable in a market that increasingly places value on corporate social responsibility. A future-fit approach serves as the launchpad for expanding your cocreation ecosystem to deliver SDG-aligned solutions that reflect the values of your stakeholders,” said Ludwig Melik, Chief Executive Officer of Planbox.

Day one of the conference is open to all, and features client panels, collaborative roundtable discussions, and guest speaking sessions around lessons learned, best practice changes, and new paths forward. Day two is exclusive to clients, and highlights product innovations, client use cases, and the Planbox roadmap for 2022. 

Both days offer peer-to-peer knowledge sharing and networking opportunities between clients, thought leaders, and other innovation practitioners from the broader Planbox community.

“Past attendees continue to benefit way beyond the event as a result of productive and lasting connections made at Planbox Imagine,” said Michelle Puistonen, Service Operations Manager at Planbox.

To ensure equal access for all members of the Planbox community, the conference will be held virtually with recordings of main sessions made available post-event to all attendees. 

Attendance is free of charge and limited to Planbox clients and select applicants only.
