5) Innovation in Real Places - @dbreznitz. This work attempts to correct for a bias in our thinking about innovation, that it is synonymous is new inventions or high tech. Rather, innovation occurs at every stage of the production process, not just in silicon valley.

@JosephWongUT I fear you have too much trust my friend. The last few years hint that we might just not have a plan...

@rumon Totally stealing this new definition of strategy! ..This is also the approach that @dbreznitz is encouraging at Canada's new innovation agency, though I'm sure he has his own preferred definition. Maybe he'll share it with us now that I've tagged him :)

[rumon carter @rumon]

@DallasGislason @dbreznitz Anytime you want to nerd out on what strategy is and is not, with advance warning that I _may_ have strong feelings - informed by folks like @RogerLMartin, @RichardRumelt and others - about all this, say the word. 🤓 Also, good to see Dan is also now on the board of @innovate_bc.

אין חוקר שלמדתי ממנו יותר לגבי הפוליטיקה וההיסטוריה של חדשנות בכלל, וההייטק הישראלי בפרט מאשר פרופ' דן ברזניץ (@dbreznitz) ואיזה כיף ש@HilaWeissberg ו@assafgi הביאו אותו לצוללת של גלובס.
שיחה מרתקת על חדשנות ואיך דואגים לחלוקה שוויונית של פירות הענף

WATCH: @MgaMunk candidate Giancarlo Da-Re tells @BNNBloomberg that Canada should invest in its strengths across the critical minerals chain instead of trying to counter the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act by giving huge subsidies to EV battery plants.
