State of Innovation Summit, Washington
Speaking at the State of Innovation Summit
June 23rd, Washington
Disruptive Creativity:
A case of paradigm bending by the fantastic trio of design, science and industry
From the website: Our world is more complex, dynamic, and interdependent than at any time in recent history. Despite current financial, geopolitical and environmental turmoil, we also live in a time of great optimism – about what can be known and what can be accomplished, about our potential to discover and innovate. To explore this potential, The Council on Competitivenessand Seed have formed a partnership to launch The State of Innovation, a comprehensive program examining the relationship between science, technology and business and how their convergence can spark a new climate of innovation in America. America’s economic and political standing are fundamentally bound to the capacity for innovation. Leadership at the frontier of science and technology generates competitive advantage in the global economy, particularly for those poised to swiftly translate new knowledge and insight into new high-value products and services. We believe that innovation will unleash the productivity and economic growth needed to rebuild prosperity in America, and bring us closer to addressing many of the grand challenges facing the United States and the world.

MIT researchers make magazine's list of '100 most creative'
Fast Company magazine has named Joseph F. Coughlin, director of MIT's AgeLab, and Neri Oxman, a graduate student in MIT's Media Lab, to its inaugural list of the "100 Most Creative People in Business." In its June issue, the magazine lauds Coughlin's research as being "devoted to using smart technology to bolster older folks' quality of life." Oxman, who graces the magazine's cover, is described as an "artist, architect, ecologist, computer scientist and designer who is not just making new things but also coming up with new ways to make things." Fast Company's list -- which includes Jonathan Ive, senior vice president of Industrial Design at Apple, Melinda Gates of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and Michele Ganeless, president of Comedy Central -- features at least three others with MIT connections. They include chemist George Whitesides, formerly an MIT professor and now at Harvard; former MIT economics professor Susan Athey, now Microsoft's chief economist and a professor at Harvard University; and inventor Saul Griffith SM '01, PhD '04. The list is "a snapshot of the range and depth of creativity across our business landscape -- a remarkable and perhaps surprising source of strength in these times of turmoil," says Fast Company Editor Robert Safian.
The June issue of Fast Company is currently on the stands; profiles of those featured on the list will be posted as of May 18 onwww.fastcompany.com.
