Spotify Innovation Stories

Case Study
Beginner
Spotify is continuously experimenting with ways to grow and support intrapreneurs in a decentralized culture. How can you create room for innovation? How can new concepts emerge and be taken from idea to production without stage gates or formal responsibilities? What are the challenges and risks involved? We don’t have specific answers, but we do have some examples. We’ll share some real-life innovation stories and discuss some things we have learned so far.
