Back to Work and the New "Age of Ingenuity" Vid-Cast

          By Chuck Black

After a longer than expected break, the Commercial Space blog has reopened for business.

For the next little while, we'll be focusing primarily on a weekly video-cast called the "Age of Ingenuity," which I currently putting together every Saturday with longtime collaborators Brian Orlotti and Al Calder.

The project focuses on Canada's "innovation ecosystem," the organizations, agencies and individuals attempting to turn innovative Canadian start-ups into world class, billion dollar "unicorns," able to anchor industries and create local jobs.

Check it out.

The May 10th, 2020 edition, focused around whether or not government is able to centralize innovation, is available online by clicking on the graphic above.

Chuck Black.
