A day in the life as the director of IBM Research – Zurich

Why blog? I think this quote from Henry Chesbrough says it all, "Open Innovation is fundamentally about operating in a world of abundant knowledge, where not all the smart people work for you, so you better go find them, connect to them, and build upon what they can do.” The postings on this site are my own and don't necessarily represent IBM's. This blog is administered by Matthias Kaiserswerth and Chris Sciacca.

I had the pleasure to work with and for Matthias when he was the Managing Director at IBM for ABB. It was a great pleasure to be able to work with such a knowledgeable and wise man!

Have fun in your next life, Mathias! The Hasler foundation will benefit greatly from your knowledge and experience!
