Innovation Landscape: Accelerating the rate of change Steve Pratt DeloittePistoia Alliance
The document discusses emerging technologies and their potential impacts. It describes several exponential technologies including artificial intelligence, robotics, cyber security, additive manufacturing, and advanced computing. These technologies represent both opportunities and threats as they experience unprecedented growth. The document also discusses how organizations can develop innovative strategies using approaches like industrialized crowdsourcing, and how they need to prepare for potential disruptions from exponential technologies.
The document discusses strategies for effective knowledge management. It outlines timeless business principles like increasing productivity and reducing costs. It also discusses identifying, creating, storing, sharing and using knowledge. Modern tools like web portals and semantic technologies can help manage knowledge better and increase productivity of knowledge workers substantially. The key challenges are to share knowledge globally and continuously create and innovate using the best strategies and technologies.

What follows is a distillation of 9 key findings that were unveiled, offering insight into best practices and challenges for those working in the innovation department, everywhere.
The document provides an overview of IFS Equity Research Group's resources and services. It describes the team of 8 seasoned analysts and their open-source research process. It outlines the firm's thematic approach focusing on disruptive technologies in industrial, IT, healthcare, and other sectors. The document also profiles over 120 covered companies and sectors they operate in.
The document discusses the results of research conducted by Telstra on how employees are adopting and utilizing technology tools for communication and collaboration in the workplace. Some key findings include:
- Nine out of ten IT leaders find it challenging to implement all the technology tools employees expect.
- Around 40% of organizations have achieved "superuser" status by working closely with employees to exceed expectations of the modern workplace.
- Employee expectations are increasingly driving technology adoption in organizations, but almost half of respondents thought their organizations prioritized other IT projects over meeting employee needs.
- Cloud-based unified communication solutions could help meet employee expectations and deliver benefits like better decision making and job satisfaction.
This document provides an introduction to the concepts of hyper-converged infrastructure. It begins by explaining that hyper-convergence allows for cloud-like scalability without compromising performance, reliability, or availability expected in a local data center. It then describes how hyper-convergence builds on the previous trend of infrastructure convergence by combining software-defined computing, networking, and storage resources that provide resilience at the software layer rather than the hardware layer. The document lists several benefits of hyper-converged infrastructure such as data efficiency, elasticity, virtual machine centricity, improved data protection, mobility, availability, and cost efficiency. It concludes by stating that hyper-convergence provides improvements to applications without increasing operational complexity for IT teams.

Oracle at DIS: Marketing and Technology — It’s Now a Hybrid World Digiday
Technology is fueling an entirely new and empowered consumer who depends daily on mobile, social and cloud platforms to interact with their world like never before. And it's requiring brands and businesses to completely rethink their entire customer approach. Let's face it: It's a consumer-centric world. Marketing and technology are now forever tied. And that transformational shift is bringing changes with today's CMO and CIO. As their worlds intersect, the need for collaboration, alignment and possibly an entirely new position emerges. Join Oracle Sound Cloud's Erika Brookes as she discusses the converging worlds of today's CMO & CIO--and the emergence of the Chief Digital Officer (CDO).

The document discusses three management practices - open innovation, experimentation-driven discovery, and future-back migration mapping - that can help entrepreneurial businesses reduce risks and unlock value. It provides examples of how each practice has been successfully used: open innovation through crowdsourcing challenges like Netflix Prize and MIT Red Balloon Challenge; experimentation through tests by companies like Google, Best Buy, and McDonald's; and future-back migration mapping in Apple's development of the iPod ecosystem. The document argues that using these practices together in an integrated system can dramatically reduce risks for startups and help realize their full potential value.

DRIVERS AND IMPEDIMENTS TO DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION - THE RESEARCHTom Rieger
This document summarizes the results of a survey about drivers and impediments to digital transformation. Over 82% of respondents agreed there is a big shift happening in enterprise technology. While 55% said their organization takes a "cloud first" approach, 74% still have network drives for file sharing. Respondents believed the main reasons older systems are still running are integration complexity (49%), business criticality (43%), and that transition is seen as a short-term problem (22%). Over the next 12 months, most organizations plan to move more workloads to the cloud.
Using Open Innovation and Open Talentto Find Needed Technologies and Skills ...Steve Rader
The document discusses how open innovation and crowdsourcing can help organizations access needed skills and technologies in an era of rapid technological change. It notes that the skills and expertise required are becoming more complex and broad. Traditional approaches may not be able to keep up with this pace of change. However, open innovation platforms can provide access to large, global networks of diverse problem solvers. Well-designed challenges on these platforms have proven effective at discovering new or existing solutions from outside an organization's domains. The document provides several case studies of challenges run by NASA that successfully sourced innovative solutions to problems.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

Temple of Asclepius in Thrace. Excavation resultsKrassimira Luka
The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).
