Thinking + Research + Ideas + Actions and concerns about innovation/growth/distribution

5) Innovation in Real Places - @dbreznitz. This work attempts to correct for a bias in our thinking about innovation, that it is synonymous is new inventions or high tech. Rather, innovation occurs at every stage of the production process, not just in silicon valley.

Canada’s productivity has been falling. Now back to 2017 levels. In my latest for @TheHubCanada, I explore the widening gap with the US: thehub.ca/2023-06-15/trevor-… #cdnecon

Fascinating interview with @dbreznitz. He hits so many nails on the head. "What about Israel's other 85%?": iglob.es/?en1448815 | via @GlobesEnglish

למה ההייטקיסטים מתנתקים מישראל? הפרק שלנו השבוע ב-#הצוללת_של_גלובס שבו אירחנו - @assafgi ואני - את מומחה החדשות מאוניברסיטת טורונטו פרופ׳ @dbreznitz. שווה האזנה! וכרגיל נשמח לתגובות שלכם
אין חוקר שלמדתי ממנו יותר לגבי הפוליטיקה וההיסטוריה של חדשנות בכלל, וההייטק הישראלי בפרט מאשר פרופ' דן ברזניץ (@dbreznitz) ואיזה כיף ש@HilaWeissberg ו@assafgi הביאו אותו לצוללת של גלובס. שיחה מרתקת על חדשנות ואיך דואגים לחלוקה שוויונית של פירות הענף globes.co.il/news/article.as…

Replying to @rumon
Totally stealing this new definition of strategy! ..This is also the approach that @dbreznitz is encouraging at Canada's new innovation agency, though I'm sure he has his own preferred definition. Maybe he'll share it with us now that I've tagged him :)

Anytime you want to nerd out on what strategy is and is not, with advance warning that I _may_ have strong feelings - informed by folks like @RogerLMartin, @RichardRumelt and others - about all this, say the word. 🤓 Also, good to see Dan is also now on the board of @innovate_bc.

WATCH: @MgaMunk candidate Giancarlo Da-Re tells @BNNBloomberg that Canada should invest in its strengths across the critical minerals chain instead of trying to counter the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act by giving huge subsidies to EV battery plants. bnnbloomberg.ca/video/canada…

It's fine to build a battery plant, but where will the inputs come from? Some really important questions here from two great @munkschool students. (Congrats Matt and Giancarlo!).
