The Myths of Innovation

Scott Berkun (Berkun Consulting)
5:45pm - 5:55pm Wednesday, 04/23/2008
Keynote
 Location: Ballroom - 3rd Level
Presentation: The Myths of Innovation Presentation [PPT]

Hype and tall tales dominate our knowledge of innovation history, and without awareness of the truth, we are set up to fail as innovators. This fun, fast paced, opinion provoking keynote, based on the recent bestselling book The Myths of Innovation (O’Reilly 2007), will dissect the deepest mythologies in tech invention to reveal truths everyone can use in their own work.
