I’ve been taking a break recently, but big things have happened while I’ve been offline. Corante, a company whose website provides hubs (portals) for targeted blogs that focus on specific business themes, has just launched a new hub for innovation. Innovation Science (this blog) is a part of the new group. The Innovation Hub can be found alongside hubs for Marketing, Media and Web Technology.
In addition to providing a single site to keep up with the top blogs in these areas, Corante also provides editorial commentary on their contributors’ posts with overviews of hot topics in the respective hub areas. Other Corante initiatives include sponsoring conferences in their four main areas, such as the upcoming Innovative Marketing Conference at Columbia University’s business school.
I’m excited about being a part of the innovation group and look forward to contributing along with my colleagues. This should be pretty interesting and I expect to see some innovative applications of our expertise through Corante.
