Studies of Nobel Prize teams

always show that either the initial collaboration among the key team members happens over coffee, tea or some other adult beverage… and/or that’s where the seminal idea arose. IOW, informal social interaction is critical to growing innovation.

Or…. iow, I’m overdue to harass you folks into an after-work coffee conclave! Yeah, yeah, you want to go to these but you’re just too busy. OK, but kiss that Nobel Prize goodbye!

Or worse, you’ll miss out on an IG Nobel Prize! LOL (Go to www.improb.com NOW, do not waste a second… you will thank me!)

We really should discuss the Idaho Innovation Alliance meeting last Thursday - I think many of you might be intrigued!!

Since we had the best turnout on a Thursday at 5, let’s shoot for Thursday, October 18, ~5 pm downtown at Dawson-Taylor (near 8th & Bannock, diagonally across from the Governor’s Office & post office).

RSVP accepts only.

[Seriously... we need to resurrect these informal get-togethers.... If there's a good spot to meet away from the downtown, I'm all ears!]

See you there! (and please check out the AIR folks at www.improb.com!)

Norris: I will miss this Thursday’s, but keep me on the list. I must go to CA yet again to fight the battles. I will be gone for over one week.
