On the first day of the Innovation Camp, I wandered into a presentation about Innovation Management by Brian Blanchard @brianblanchard. Brian is the chairman and founder of the event, and I was very impressed with his drive and energy. On the second day, Matt Ridings @techguerrilla had the coveted role of sharing Is My Idea Worth Money? I @carenlibby sat in on a 5-camper panel that included Mark Cummuta @triumphcio, Dan Davison @bizmanualz, Brad Hogenmiller @javastl and Ryan Bell @rjb227s. We focused on Innovation Experience, a discussion about the personal and professional challenges of pursuing the next best thing.
In this month’s issue of Fast Company, the feature story is about The World’s Most Innovative Companies. Facebook is #1, and I think it’s because that platform gives individuals and companies a more creative, visual way to connect and express what they’re all about. As much as I gained from the knowledge that was imparted at the Innovation Camp, it’s the dynamic individuality of the presenters and participants that will stay with me the most. Fortunately, those connections continue through social media. It’s all very timely, don’t you think?
