US News magazine interviews John Kao, concerned for our innovation abilities

 

John Kao is the creator of the above image (used with permission) which is the blueprint for what our facility will someday look like.  US News magazine has a good interview with him where he expresses concern for America's ability to innovate:

Innovation doesn't happen by itself. A lot of organizations don't have sophisticated ideas about innovation. In a company, you need to have a leader who articulates change. Then you need a "coalition of the willing" who can drive that intention into the organization. There's a lot of discussion about an "energy president" or an "education president." I think we need an "innovation president." The country is at a crossroads. The next 13 months of national dialogue are critical because some problems are not easily reversible. It's going to take a generation to solve our education problem, for example.

I couldn't agree more, as we say here: process, network, facility .....will provide the incubator and way forward....
