How IBM Innovates – Open and Global
Anders Quitzau, an Innovation Executive at IBM forwarded an interesting presentation that gives a good overview of the many innovation activities that take place at IBM.
How IBM Innovates – Anders Quitzau
Some keywords are open and global as summed up by this quote by Sam Palmisano:
“We opened up our labs, said to the world, ‘Here are our crown jewels, have at them’. The Jam – and programs like it – are greatly accelerating our ability to innovate in meaningful ways for business and society” – Sam Palmisano, CEO.
Anders, thanks for sharing this…



Hi Stefan,
A fully streamed version of the video of the talk "Can India be an Innovation Superpower" by myself (IBM Fellow Dr. C. Mohan) is available at http://bit.ly/iisVid The talk slides are at http://bit.ly/CMiisp Abstract: http://bit.ly/b0F2Wc Poster: http://bit.ly/9lGNBd Photos: http://bit.ly/CMiisP
This talk was given as part of the University of California at Santa Cruz's Mapping the Future of India Talk Series at the India Community Center in Milpitas (California) on 24 March 2010.
People on low bandwidth connections for whom the above streamed version of the video is not being received well can download the original 179 MB video at http://bit.ly/IISvid and view in offline mode.
Comments are welcome! I really appreciated the comments that I received when I made posts in other fora which pointed to the slides. The video includes much more material than what can be gleaned from looking at only the slides. Also, it includes the Q&A interactions with the audience.

Wonderful. I've added a few thoughts on IBM's evolution from big brother to innovation hero on The Radical Ear: http://wp.me/pJfdj-dd
