🌟 Reflecting on Meaningful Connections and Shared Vision 🌟 In a world brimming with possibilities, it's often the partnerships we forge and the collaborative efforts we undertake that truly propel us forward. As I look back on our recent Invention Education Conference, I am filled with a profound sense of gratitude for the remarkable teams at InventEd, The Lemelson Foundation, KID Museum, Spark!Lab, and all the esteemed speakers and advocates who took every moment to inspire. Our time together was not merely a gathering of like-minded individuals; it was a convergence of passion, purpose, and unwavering dedication to the transformative power of invention and innovative education. Through thought-provoking discussions, insightful presentations, and meaningful exchanges, we delved deep into the heart of what it means to inspire, educate, and empower (nod to Jonathan W.'s PHENOMENAL speech). I am particularly struck by the tireless efforts of InventEd (BIG shout out to Erin Tochen) in formalizing and expanding the Invention Education field. Their commitment to developing tools, fostering consistency, and supporting the growth of our network is truly commendable. Likewise, The Lemelson Foundation's steadfast belief in the potential of invention to address pressing social and economic challenges serves as a beacon of hope for a brighter tomorrow. Furthermore, the pioneering work of KID Museum and Spark!Lab in redefining the educational landscape cannot be overstated. By seamlessly integrating hands-on learning experiences with exploration and creativity, they have set a new standard for engaging young minds and nurturing future innovators. At the heart of our collective endeavors lies a fundamental truth: collaboration is key. It is through the synergy of diverse perspectives, talents, and expertise that we unlock new possibilities and drive meaningful change. As we continue to navigate the ever-evolving landscape of education, let us remain steadfast in our commitment to unsiloed STEM education and the cultivation of enthusiastic teams of educators. Together, we have the power to shape a future where innovation knows no bounds, where every individual is empowered to unleash their full potential, and where education becomes not just a means to an end, but a lifelong journey of discovery and growth. In closing, I extend my deepest gratitude to each and every InventEd participant for your unwavering dedication, passion, and commitment to excellence. May our collective efforts continue to inspire, educate, and empower for generations to come. #Gratitude #Collaboration #Innovation #EducationLeadership #InventEd #InventionEducation #IGNITEtheFuture

One month into my return to school after 7 years, and the Innovation Science course has already reshaped my view on tech innovation. We're deep into the concept of lily padding, especially around 6G technology—identifying "low hanging fruits" through purpose-context maps and Significance-Headroom graphs. This approach bridges my startup event experiences with academic insights, highlighting the strategic paths for 6G's potential impact. Revisiting the science and theory has reignited my passion for learning and connecting theory with real-world application. Studying why I did, what I did everyday is so satisfying and empowering to overcome future challenges. #BackToSchool #6GTechnology #innovationculture #lifelonglearning
