Rules of I&E Network:
1. Break the Rules and Dream — Challenge conventional thinking. Innovation grows when people go beyond familiar boundaries and imagine the unseen.
2. Open Doors and Listen — Be approachable and receptive to new ideas. Active listening creates chances for unexpected collaboration.
3. Trust and Be Trusted — Trust underpins a healthy innovation community. Take measured risks with others to build mutual confidence.
4. Experiment and Develop Value — Favor action over perfection. Try, fail, learn, and iterate. Ask for help and stay curious.
5. Seek Fairness, Not Advantage (No Selling) — Build partnerships on respect and fairness rather than trying to win at others’ expense.
6. Fail and Persist — Failure is expected and acceptable; the important part is to keep moving forward.
7. Pay It Forward — Help others without expecting immediate returns; generosity cultivates goodwill and future collaboration.
