The perfect way to get started with Oxford TRIZ - wherever you are. Join us for free to learn more about Oxford TRIZ, it's tools and processes and how it can help you.
In this 40-60 minute live webinar I present on the basics of Oxford TRIZ and why it provides systematic and structured innovation.

Because if everyone is on the same page, then innovation can happen.
