These are her key takeaways from the conversation:

• Why develop something in-house when there is probably already a startup with a solution for it? Keeping always an eye on what is happening outside your company will make you save both time and money.
• Startup collaboration enables new business models. These innovative companies are born in a new economy, and large established companies have a lot to learn from them.
• When entering a partnership with startups you should always keep in mind that these are very young companies. You can’t treat them in the same way you treat your normal vendors.
• Involving the right stakeholders in an early stage of the development increases the chances of successful roll-outs.
