<strong>The</strong> Economist’s <strong>Seventh</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Innovation</strong> <strong>Awards</strong> <strong>Ceremony</strong> <strong>and</strong> Summit<br />

Collaborative innovation: A new approach to new ideas<br />

<strong>The</strong> Economist was established in 1843 to take part in “a severe contest between intelligence,<br />

which presses forward, <strong>and</strong> an unworthy, timid ignorance obstructing our progress”. One of the<br />

chief ways in which intelligence presses forward is through innovation, which is now recognised<br />

as one of the most important contributors to economic growth. <strong>Innovation</strong>, in turn, depends on<br />

the creative individuals who dream up new ideas <strong>and</strong> turn them into reality.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Economist recognises these talented individuals through our annual <strong>Innovation</strong> <strong>Awards</strong>.<br />

Now in its seventh year, this unique annual <strong>Awards</strong> <strong>Ceremony</strong> <strong>and</strong> Summit is the only event of<br />

its kind focusing on the interface between innovation <strong>and</strong> business.<br />
