Rules of I&E Network:
1. Break the Rules and Dream — Challenge conventional thinking. Innovation grows when people push beyond familiar limits and imagine what’s not yet visible.
2. Open Doors and Listen — Be approachable and receptive to new people and ideas. Active listening often leads to unexpected opportunities.
3. Trust and Be Trusted — Trust underpins collaborative innovation. Take small risks with others to build mutual confidence.
4. Experiment and Develop Value — Favor action over perfection. Try, fail, learn, and try again; seek help and ask questions.
5. Seek Fairness, Not Advantage (No Selling) — Focus on building respectful relationships and partnerships rather than trying to gain 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 fosters goodwill and future collaboration.
