關於這本電子書

This book, the first published by The Owls Foundation, tells you how brilliant ideas and inventions can be transformed into innovations and breakthroughs that make a real impact, and analyses why others fail.

In the global world of today there is great interdependency. No country, no institution, no company can do it alone. And we cannot ignore the international context. On top of that, no innovation comes on its own.

The active engagement and quality of the leading figures who are interviewed is one of the distinguishing features of this project. These remarkable individuals were generous with their time and thought hard to reflect on their experiences.
