Innovation is essential to developing technology that will drive world-wide progress. Time and time again, large companies do not create inventions, but startups, entrepreneurs, and small companies are leading the way. Are we doing all that we can to develop the next generation of entrepreneurs and innovators who will  revolutionize the market? This presentation holds the story of a young entrepreneur, sharing what brought him to where he is today, including key experiences in the world of business and innovation: seemingly unrelated activities, ranging from forest survival to investigative journalism to traveling around the world. The company, Simple Gardens, hopes to change the way that we experience our food and the act of gardening by building beautiful indoor art pieces for homes that grow plants automatically. Lessons learned will be shared as a road map for innovation & entrepreneurship education.
