Rules of I&E Network:
1. Break the Rules and Dream — Challenge conventional thinking. Innovation thrives when people look beyond traditional boundaries and notice what others might miss.
2. Open Doors and Listen — Be accessible and open to new people and ideas. Active listening creates opportunities for unexpected connections.
3. Trust and Be Trusted — Trust is the foundation of an innovation ecosystem. Take small risks with others to build mutual confidence and collaboration.
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) — Build relationships and partnerships on mutual respect instead of trying to “win” at the expense of others.
6. Fail and Persist — Failure is expected and acceptable; the key is to persist and continue moving forward.
7. Pay It Forward — Help others without expecting immediate returns; generosity seeds goodwill and future collaboration.
