the future of innovation
DESCRIPTION
This presentation was accompanying a keynote at COFES 2011 -- the Conference for the Future of Engineering -- Scottsdale, April 2011. A more compact version of the same presentation was given to a group of Israeli engineers & entrepreneurs in Tel Aviv, during COFES Israel, December 2010. I am well aware that the presentation material, without the accompanying speech, may be a bit cryptic at times. Also, comments and questions are welcome at @cdnTRANSCRIPT

Who was leading the market in “stunning skylines” 25 years ago?
Then why isn’t the Shanghai skyline located on a US Coast?

Surprising!

Surprising?
What do a Golf Ball and a High Speed Train have
in common?

Surprising?
What do Kraft Cheese and Goodyear Tires have

Surprising?
Why would a Truck Seat and an X-Ray Scanner
ever meet?

Surprising? Extend your views…
True Invention represents only a fraction of a % of Innovation…
“Actling” A simple, easily found and almost standard solution…
“Knowling” A solution found WITHIN the sector or industry
“Borderling” A solution found IN ANOTHER sector or industry
“Researchling” A solution found in another discipline of science
Invention A new, so far inexistent scientific concept/creation

So What?

Where is your market?
• By 2050, world population will grow to 9 billion people
• 99% of this increase will be in the developing world
• The economic growth will be there, NOT here
• But… these people are NOT your current clients
![Page 28: The Future of Innovation](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051513/54807d9ab379597b2b8b5a72/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Where is your market?
• Look at your NON customers
• The developing world is growing a new middle class
• 5-10% of 5 billion people?
• Maybe you should stop selling to the elite...

From now on, all Innovation
will be social, because…

Innovations thrives in a
world of (material/social)
constraints…
