Rules of the I&E Network:
1. Break the Rules and Dream — Challenge conventional thinking. Innovation flourishes when people look beyond established boundaries and imagine the unseen.
2. Open Doors and Listen — Be available and receptive to new ideas and people. Active listening creates chances for unexpected collaborations.
3. Trust and Be Trusted — Trust underpins strong innovation communities. Take small risks with others to build mutual confidence and cooperation.
4. Experiment and Develop Value — Favor action over perfection. Try things, learn from failures, and iterate. Seek assistance and ask questions.
5. Seek Fairness, Not Advantage (No Selling) — Focus on mutual respect and partnership rather than trying to gain at others' expense.
6. Fail and Persist — Failure is expected and acceptable. The important part is to continue moving forward.
7. Pay It Forward — Help others without expecting immediate returns; generosity fosters goodwill and future collaboration.
