PwC Innovation Office in Fortune Magazine

We are excited and honored to announce that “PowerPitch,” PwC’s innovation initiative to develop the next big service opportunity, has been featured in the October 17 issue of Fortune magazine.  The article entitled “American Idol: The PwC accounting edition” captures the enthusiasm of both the PwC workforce and its leadership.

PowerPitch was successful not only because it generated 779 business ideas, but because it ignited the entrepreneurial spirit of an entire firm and inspired a cultural transformation of creativity and collaboration.  Please visit the article and let us know what you think.

Thank you,

PwC Innovation Office
