This Issue: Vision for a Different Future

In my vision of Open Innovation and Open Organizations, I equate openness with excellence and impertinence. 
Excellence: Presans has a strong focus on science, industry and technology, as well as on expertise to ensure that value is delivered.
Impertinence: Presans always takes a fresh look at the issues and does not hesitate to shake up the established consensus.
Walls are there to be breached.

Take care and see you next month.
