Case Studies

In this section of the website, we are providing you with two different types of cases:

1. Historic Case Studies: Our team thought that there may have been a number of best practices that might have been discovered in the past, and then lost to history because they weren’t effectively documented at the time. We began to delve into processes and practices that had been used in the past and still might have relevance in today’s fast moving world. We were surprised to find a number of Best Practices/Processes that could be resurrected from the misty fog of history. There is still much to do in this area.
   If you have a case you’d like to contribute, we will consider posting them. The cases can be either Historic or Current. We will honor your copyrights to the material.
• How the Greeks created the World’s First Age of Innovation
• Edison’s Breakthrough Co-Creative Innovation Engine (to be completed)
• Innovation during World War II
  
  
2. Client Case Studies: During the last decade, our team has been intimately involved in launching unique innovation projects across the globe. The following case studies represent innovation alliances, large and small, that have produced remarkable results using the Engines of Innovation Best Practices. We have many, many more examples, but the ones included here are quite representative of what has been accomplished. We look forward to adding many more to this list.
