The theme of this third issue of Nordic Innovation is playing with innovation. We got three innovators to answer questions related to how to play with innovation. They helped us to explore the concept. It is not about efficiency but effectiveness, it is about being fearless to create new things and it is about the tolerance of failure. Companies and individuals need to play with innovation like they were kid-curious about the world.
