<br/><br/> "What Works: The Corporate Accelerator gives a framework for corporate innovation, which can be applied to accelerators and beyond. In this book Miller and Kagan do a deep dive on corporate accelerators, providing a clear landscape, strategy rubric, tactical guidance and a (new) suggested model for building corporate accelerator programs that work. There will be quantitative data not available elsewhere, which can be used in internal business cases for corporate leaders. The book will also include case studies and best practices from leading accelerator managers on what works, and what doesn't work, to inform the creation of a successful program. Ultimately, innovation executives will be able to differentiate and choose the best features to give their corporate accelerator the greatest chance of success and positive impact. What Works: The Corporate Accelerator will explore topics such as: Characteristics and Features of Accelerators: The spectrum of home grown to outsourced. Motivations for launching an accelerator. Goals & KPIs to measure success. Building the Accelerator team. Follow through & go-to-market. Portfolio management; Exits and Endings"--
