How Diverse Thinkers Unlock Open Innovation

Unlock Innovation

Event Description

Hosted by Unlock Innovation and Flux B2B, this live online panel brought together business and innovation leaders who think differently and who understand that true innovation happens when many minds meet.

As part of Dyslexia Awareness Month, the discussion explored how dyslexic thinking adds value to innovation, strategy and leadership in the modern workplace. Our panellists shared lived experiences and practical insights that reframed dyslexia as a strategic advantage rather than a challenge to accommodate.

Through real-world stories, open conversation and inclusive perspectives, the panel revealed what happens when organisations unlock the hidden brilliance already on their teams and showed how every kind of thinker has a role to play in building a better future.
