The session begins with the visionary who coined the term 'intrapreneur' – Gifford Pinchot III.

THE LEAGUE FOR ME IS A THOUGHT-LEADER FOR IDEAS AND ACTION IN INTRAPRENEURSHIP. IT DRIVES AND ARTICULATES ONE OF THE PUREST VISIONS FOR PRAGMATIC CHANGE - WORKING BOLDLY AND WITH A POSITIV SPIRIT TO MAKE ORGANISATIONS LIVE UP TO THEIR FULL POTENTIAL TO BE AGENTS FOR GOOD.
