Innovation an “Import-Export” Business

Groundbreaking, original or innovative ideas can’t be forced, but one can set the stage for their arrival.

That’s the point of a “Pulse” article on LinkedIn, which points out that creativity and innovation is an “import-export business,” one that requires diverse people and ideas, as well as a willingness to tolerate ambiguity and (respectful) disagreement, to succeed.

The ‘Secret Sauce’ of Creativity and Innovation:

Creativity is an exercise in the import and export of perspectives, from one venue or domain to another. Over and over.

The Kentucky Innovation Network believes so much in the importance of new ideas, creativity and innovation to business growth and success that it is the presenting sponsor of the IdeaFestival, which will take place on Sept. 30 – Oct. 2 in Louisville.

We hope to see you there!
