3. Trust and Be Trusted — Trust underpins a healthy innovation community. Take small risks to build mutual confidence.
4. Experiment and Develop Value — Prioritize doing and learning over perfection. Try, fail, learn, and iterate. Ask for help when needed.
5. Seek Fairness, Not Advantage (No Selling) — Focus on respectful relationships and equitable partnerships rather than trying to gain at others' expense.
6. Fail and Persist — Failure is expected; persistence and forward momentum are what matter.
7. Pay It Forward — Help others without expecting immediate returns; generosity fosters future collaboration.
