The rise of innovation to the top of the agenda of many countries today has resulted in a profound shift in the nature of global competition.rnrnToday, the world is divided into countries that innovate and those who are lagging behind. There is also a myth that the most innovative economies are those with the biggest economic muscle. rnrnThe reality is that in an innovation economy, size does not matter. In fact, some of the most innovative economies are the world’s smallest countries.rnrnInnovation economies are talent-driven, creativity, and content-driven. These countries attract the best talents from around the world. Because of this, their innovation lead continues to expand, creating even bigger gaps between rich and poor nations.rnrnLike water that finds its level, innovators are usually people who are passionate about new ideas and excited about the possibilities. They will work their way to place their product for the market to accept or reject. They will participate wholeheartedly to push innovation in their area of interest.rnrnIf they do not find the support they need, they will take their ideas where its potential can be fully realized.rnrnAnd this continues to be the struggle for many in the emerging economies operating within systems that stifle innovative minds.rnrnIn this book of his thoughts, ideas, and concerns about innovation, Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Paduka Dr Limkokwing is at his most frank and unplugged about a subject he feels many people talk about, but few really grasp.rnrnWhile some may call his views radical and even controversial, no one can deny his passion, commitment and the results he has achieved in his innovative ventures. rnrnThis is a book that should be required reading at university, government agencies and for anyone who dreams of changing the world with his or her innovations.rnrnrn
