The Era of Open Innovation

The Era of Open Innovation.

This talk is deceptively simple but addresses the problem of whether patents promote innovation or protect the larger organisations. Larger organisations are understandably risk-averse, their credo is often to reduce the exposure and risk in order to produce predictably and, of course, profit. Real innovation is, by its nature, risky. The greater the leap, the greater the risk. What Leadbeater looks at, with a beautifully clear train of thought, is whether open source is the real future of innovation.

This is well worth listening to.
