Rules of I&E Network:
1. Break the Rules and Dream — Challenge conventional thinking. Innovation grows when people look beyond traditional limits and see what others miss.
2. Open Doors and Listen — Be approachable and receptive to new ideas and people. Active listening creates chances for unexpected collaborations.
3. Trust and Be Trusted — Trust underpins any innovation community. Take small risks together to build mutual confidence.
4. Experiment and Develop Value — Favor action over perfection. Try, fail, learn, and iterate. Ask for help and pose questions.
5. Seek Fairness, Not Advantage (No Selling) — Focus on mutual respect and partnership rather than trying to "win" at others' expense.
6. Fail and Persist — Failure is expected and part of progress. Keep moving forward.
7. Pay It Forward — Support others without expecting immediate returns; generosity fosters goodwill and future collaboration.
