📈 Empowering Innovation: Insights from Bo Heiden At the recent Emerging Deep Tech Market Trends 2024 event, Bowman Heiden, Executive Director of the Tusher Strategic Initiative for Technology Leadership at the University of California, Berkeley, shared invaluable perspectives on bridging the gap between technological innovation and market realization. He emphasized that while groundbreaking technologies are essential, their true impact is realized only through effective commercialization strategies—a core mission of the UC-Berkeley Deep Tech Innovation Lab. By fostering interdisciplinary collaboration among business, law, and engineering students, the lab equips emerging leaders to navigate the complexities of bringing deep tech innovations to market. Bo's insights underscore the importance of: - Strategic Vision: Aligning technological potential with market needs. - Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Leveraging diverse expertise to drive innovation. -Practical Application: Ensuring that technological advancements translate into real-world solutions. A heartfelt thank you to Bo for inspiring our community and reinforcing the principle that "Technology doesn't commercialize itself"—it requires dedicated effort and strategic leadership. #DeepTech #InnovationLeadership #TechCommercialization #UCberkeley #EmergingTechnologies

The Future

Sam highlights a critical truth about our fractured culture—technology has both connected and atomized us. We must go beyond a mere critique of political fragmentation to rebuild the bridges. Let’s ask: How can technology be reshaped to foster empathy and shared understanding rather than division? It’s not just about avoiding dogmatism but also embracing creativity in how we design and use our tools to bring diverse perspectives into genuine dialogue. The challenge is as much ethical as it is intellectual: Can we build systems that amplify our shared humanity rather than our differences? By Big Think

May I present one of the most exciting new online experiences in, 'Strategic Foresight' (or, 'the ability to distil macro trends that are likely to affect your business in future and develop innovative solutions to them.') It's facilitated by the excellent team at United Edge over 4 weeks online. The last course had over 158 participants from 53 countries, applying these tools to their strategy, design, project planning, operations, communications and business models. https://lnkd.in/e_RHS9An What’s unique about United Edge and this course is it’s one of the few places you can gain a really diverse perspective from the Majority South and learn about case studies and ways of problem-solving beyond the standard business articles you might come across from the Big 4 or business / university press. The fellow participants come from a really diverse range of backgrounds and experiences, and yet the facilitation is exceptional in how inclusive and psychologically safe it feels to unpack ‘wicked problems’ and actually break new ground and discover new ways of thinking of being as leaders.
