NTT Innovation Institute, Inc. (NTT i3) is the Silicon Valley-based innovation center for NTT Group, one of the world’s largest ICT companies. NTT i3 works with both established enterprise companies and early stage digitally-native businesses to identify ambitious innovation ideas in the the R&D lab and develop them into new technology platforms that are applied against real business and consumer problems in the marketplace. NTT i3 embraces a unique full lifecycle approach to innovation combining the best practices of open innovation research, applied R&D expertise, and agile product development. Collaborative open innovation elevates and expands enterprise companies’ internal conversations and explorations around digital innovation opportunities. Applied R&D expertise and agile product methodologies then bring focus and practical application by translating those ideas into the development of new technology platforms, products, and practices. To accelerate innovation from the idea stage into marketplace reality, NTT i3 combines its access to the significant global infrastructure and resources of parent company NTT Global with its own software startup expertise and deep enterprise business relationships.
