Las Vegas Interop 08
It all started with the Main Keynote Address by C.K. Prahalad. C.K. Spoke about his new book ” The New Age of Innovation”. You can find more about this concept of driving co-created value through global networks here http://www.newageofinnovation.com/ as well his book.
Brady Wilson was asked to be interviewed by Science Logic about Interop and their product EM7. We encourage you to watch Brady and David Link (President and CEO of Science Logic) discuss both topics.
Here is some photos of Science Logics booth.
