Have someone in your group attend key trade shows bring back their discoveries and connections to the larger group. Invite your vendors to do capability share outs at your headquarters once a year so they can showcase their latest and greatest. Assign ownership of an "areas of engineering interest" to your engineers. Invest in them with additional training. They can then become your SME and bring others along in your org. This is also a great leadership development opportunity for them.

Lean into this Outside-In. You can go further and invite these experts in to visit your company. These linkages can pay off by increasing your knowledge network, influencing key leadership within your own company, and set the stage for digital or manufacturing transformation.
