May was a future-looking month of innovation for Miro, with a slate of newly released product updates, making diagrams more robust and stylish and workflows more secure and streamlined. At Miro Next, our virtual conference, we unveiled a new platform and variety of new features and integrations designed to help organizations unlock new ways of collaborating and innovating, pushing beyond the boundaries of a typical digital whiteboard.

Every business needs to grow and adapt to its surroundings. If it doesn’t, chances are it won’t succeed — especially if competitors are taking steps to develop in the marketplace. Simply put, if your business doesn’t change to keep up with customer demands, it might not survive. This is where an innovation process can help. With a solid innovation process in place, your business can find the best avenue of growth.

If you could build anything, what would you make? At Miro, our goal has always been to empower teams to build the next big thing. Last week we launched our redesigned Miro Developer Platform 2.0, enabling developers and partners to build apps and integrations for Miro’s 35+ million users.

The phrase ‘business innovation’ is thrown around a lot. So much so that it’s become a bit of a buzzword. But there’s a reason it’s such a well-used term. Businesses need innovation to survive. It’s as simple as that. Without it, you risk falling behind in the marketplace and losing business to competitors. And if you don’t turn things around, you’ll eventually be out of business.
