Lunch & Learn with Adj. Lecturer Stephanie Farsht: Innovating in Large Corporations

"How has digital disrupted retail? And what are retailers doing about it? Is corporate innovation enough to save themselves from Amazon?"

Join Stephanie Farsht, Adjunct Lecturer of Innovation and teacher of Kellogg's New Venture Discovery, as she shares her experiences innovating at one of the world's oldest and largest retailers.

Stephanie is a strategist and innovator who spent 16 years at Target Corporation developing "what's next" in omnichannel Target. Her focus was on driving new businesses and strategies that leverage innovative technology. Stephanie led and managed teams charged with evaluating acquisitions, joint ventures, partnership opportunities and developing relationships with key digital partners, VCs and early-stage startups. She initiated and executed numerous high-profile test and learn strategies focused on emerging business models such as flexible fulfillment, loyalty and alternative payments.

These board members included high-profile serial entrepreneurs and venture capitalists, primarily in Silicon Valley.
