Meet your people.
Get better at the work. Get known for it too. The Novum Society is where those leading and building what's next in large organizations, come to get answers, sharpen their thinking, build real relationships, and advance their careers.
● The situation
The field moves fast. Generic tools won't keep you ahead.
You have access to more information than ever but no time to figure out what actually matters. Generic AI tools miss the nuance of your specific context. Your social network is broad but thin — not the people you call when you face a difficult decision. And there's no shortage of content: webinars, articles, podcasts — almost none of it speaking to the messy, complex work of leading innovation inside a large organization. Most of the time, you don't know what a better answer would have looked like — or how much further it would have taken you. The Society fills that gap. An AI companion trained on 15 years of practitioner knowledge from this field specifically — so the answer you get is actually relevant to your situation. Easy and direct access to peers who have done what you're trying to do. Sessions and content that go deep on what actually matters. And the career infrastructure to make your expertise visible and your next move easier.
Not another thing to consume alongside your real work. Part of how serious professionals in this field operate.
● Who's in
What members have in common isn't necessarily the job title... it's the nature of the work. Acting on what's happening on the outside, driving change from the inside. Under pressure, with high expectations and no simple playbook.
The Society is for professionals working at the intersection of innovation, strategy, growth, technology, venturing and transformation inside large organizations. Broad enough, but focused. And deliberately diverse across industries, functions and seniority levels. If that's your world, you'll find your people here. If it isn't, this isn't for you.

Chief Innovation Officers
VP, Head and Director-level innovation leads
Strategy & Growth leads
Corporate strategy, business development, growth functions
Intrapreneurs & Venture Leads

● How it works
Four pillars to build on. Over the course of your career.
Most memberships are passive. The Society isn't. Each pillar is built to be useful today and more valuable a year from now. Get a critical question answered before your next meeting. Find the person who's already solved what you're working on. Stay on top of what other companies are doing so you can move quicker. Immediate value. Accelerating returns.
GET ANSWERS
Ask a question about your challenge and get a relevant, contextual answer immediately from your AI companion Nova — trained on 15 years of practitioner knowledge.
Prepare for a board presentation. Benchmark your approach. Find out how others have handled what you’re facing — immediately, not after three weeks of searching.
And when you want a human perspective, it’s easy to ask fellow members for you direct, unfiltered input.
STAY SHARP
Speaker sessions with practitioners doing the work — not polished keynotes. Group discussions on topics that are trending right now. Workshops that go deep on methods, tools and approaches.
Plus 800+ hours of on-demand content, curated and personalised to your role and where you are in your journey.
CONNECT
The right people, not just more people. Relationships that compound over time.
AI-powered matchmaking that finds exactly who else has navigated what you’re working on — based on actual experience and shared challenges, not title or geography. Networking sessions across industries and titles.
And as the community grows, in-person meetups and socials.
ADVANCE
Mentoring from peers who’ve navigated the terrain ahead of you.
A community-based job board where roles circulate within the network first.
And the visibility that comes from being active in a community your peers respect. The network you build here travels with you.

NOT SURE THIS FITS?
The Society is the wider membership of Novum. For innovation leaders only, the Suite offers peer advisory in curated groups of 8–12 members.
The first Studio offers a year-long working group for teams integrating AI into innovation management, to move from scattered experiments to a coherent, working approach.
Both include membership of the Society too.

● Why Novum?
The Society is built on the same foundation as everything else at Novum: peer dialogue among a curated group of people who actually do this work, effectively facilitated to be worth everyone's time.
In the age of AI, having genuine human-to-human conversations is crucial. Technology accelerates access to information—but it doesn't replace the kind of nuanced, experience-based judgment that emerges when peers think through complex issues together. Novum provides that space: structured, confidential dialogue among equals, leading to better outcomes and stronger leadership.
Because when it's all about speed, the best thing you can do is pause, take a step back, and focus on what really matters.
To make sure you're actually heading in the right direction, not just moving fast. With others, chasing similar objectives and facing similar challenges.
