Breakthrough: From Innovation to Impact

by

19 real-life case studies on how brilliant ideas and inventions can be transformed into innovations and breakthroughs that make a real impact, and why others fail. Together with our international network of leaders, entrepreneurs and scholars, we present a wide range of case studies in which we examine the mechanisms that lead to genuine breakthroughs. We look at the worlds of business, philanthropy, diplomacy, economics, investing, geopolitics, media, agriculture, logistics, technology and healthcare.
