Scenario prompts are the first step of strategy development. Topics to consider are technology clusters, data science, AI, CRISPR chicken, VR and fitness, xenotransplant, fusion, autonomous robotic needles, time travel and quantum entanglement, exponential thinking and my blog about Going on Offense: A Leader’s Playbook for Perpetual Innovation” by Behnam Tabrizi (whom I know from my PMI days).
Have a great weekend. Enjoy the rugby.

Tokamak Energy’s upgrades bring us closer to commercial fusion energy
Nuclear fusion is a reaction that powers the sun and the stars, and it is extremely difficult to replicate. But, if we can successfully harness this stellar reaction, it could lead to clean, green, safe, and abundant energy being a reality all around the world.
Autonomous robotic needle can maneuver through living tissue
By leveraging the power of robotics and AI, we developed a robot capable of autonomously steering needles to targets in living tissue with unprecedented accuracy and safety
