Shinise principles of longevity, moderation, and intergenerational thinking could guide companies worldwide to prioritize ecological health and human fulfillment over endless economic growth.

It's interesting but a bit harsh to read the term "Innovation fatigue", or how an organization manages to stifle all innovative initiatives and discourage its employees from taking the initiative? I totally agree with you Japan Innovation Network Tsuyoshi Mano, Hiroyuki Ozaki, Tristan BILI: #innovationculture is key. It must show everyone, at every level of the organization, how uncertainty is an invaluable source of opportunity for the company. It must make every collaborator not scared to innovate! Let's work together on this subject at a global scale, based on #InnovationManagementSystem ISO TC 279 - Innovation Management.

Today, 2 February 2024, Brussels is hosting the 3rd EU-Indo Pacific Ministerial Forum. The Indo-Pacific region has been the engine of global economic growth for the past 5 years and this trajectory may well continue for some time. The IMF has forecasted the region’s economic growth at an overall 5.2% in 2024, with India at 6.5%, China at 4.6% and Indonesia at 5%, making the region the highest in terms of global economic growth this year. The EU has laid out a strong road map to engage with the region based on EU-Indo Pacific Strategy, while the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) produced the ASEAN Outlook on the Indo-Pacific as a strategic reference to engage the region. What do the above facts suggest for Sweden and Indonesia ? My initial thoughts are: 1) plenty of untapped potentials, 2) go beyond existing business models, 3) timely to learn the region more than just beaches and sunshine…. What are you waiting for …..
