What do we mean by innovation? I think it is like strategy as one of the most overused words in my circles.

It is a genuine question because every time i get involved in a session/ Board/ discussion it seems everybody in the room has a differing idea!

This week I joined our newly formed Innovation Board under the leadership of Dr Nik Kotecha OBE at the LLEp and quite rightly we spent most of the meeting discussing meaning and what outcomes we should seek from our work. Strangely for me I stayed largely silent in order to listen and learn. But I am keen to hear more. What does Innovation mean to you and what would help you? With limited budget what could and should the LLEP do to encourage and foster a culture of Innovation in the County?
