What’s the best way to approach innovation? Should you have a hackathon, a design sprint, or maybe a brainstorming session? Should you start an ideation process to find the next best thing, or should you gather ideas to improve your products? These are just some of the most common questions we hear from innovators. It seems like we are wired to always look for the perfect method to fix problems.

If you want to become more creative, one of the most effective things you can do is become more comfortable letting your mind wander. It sounds simple, but there is a wealth of research which shows the creative benefits of letting your thoughts flow freely. Mind wandering, or daydreaming, often occurs when you are not focussed on a specific task in front of you.

Visual source; [link]. We need to think about a choice-cascade integrative model for innovation. Often we fail to understand our role in contributing to innovation; we need a cascading effect. Here I want to explain my thinking behind this and provide the visual cascading steps I feel help us succeed in innovation. For me, the “cascading effect” for innovation is “ a sequence of events in which each produces the circumstances necessary for the initiation of the next”.

In today's industrial landscape, the pursuit of sustainable energy optimization and decarbonization has become paramount. Manufacturing corporations across the U.S. are facing the urgent need to align with decarbonization goals while enhancing efficiency and productivity.

What do you need to do to make someone like your idea? Get them to see it as many times as possible. One of the most powerful unconscious biases which we all suffer from is called the Mere Exposure Effect. It essentially says that the more often we see something, the more we will associate it with being positive and like it. Even if we are not aware of it.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

But what about technology which seems to be improving at incredibly fast rates? Well, this might be due to exponential growth, and is especially likely to happen with newer technologies.

Thinking big is vital for small businesses, but, when you’re big, you can afford to think small, says Vincent Brault of Anaqua. For many small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), the world of intellectual property is a minefield that they approach with fear and trepidation. But it doesn't have to be that way. Larger enterprises have proven adept at ploughing a course through the IP minefield, and SMEs can learn a lot – and stay safe – by following their path.
