Innovation

Economists have repeatedly found “Innovation” to be the most powerful factor driving a country’s growth. During the 20th century, 30% to 40% of the gains in productivity and growth achieved were attributable to innovation in its various forms. We feel that innovation will account for most of the future economic gains. Collaboration is something that we find of greatest value and a necessary component of innovation. Our goal is to change the way problems are solved by creating an environment for innovation. Network collaborations produce these positive results. Our strategic objectives are to: 1. improve the way problems are solved 2. support continuous innovation 3. use innovative collaboration for global impact Parties interested in participation in the Network Collaboration Working Group can Contact Us.
