It’s been a crazy year and a half, but some brilliant innovators have emerged in the new normal, and it’s time to celebrate that!
Welcome back to Bold Business with Philip Michael. Be sure to like, comment, and subscribe to Bold TV for all things innovation, and all things Bold.
Joining Philip Michael today is Kaitlin Milliken, the host of the Innovation Answered podcast from Innovation Leader, to tell us all about and join us in celebrating innovators who are shaking up their industries. Also, want to know how to be an innovator? We've got that, too.
Innovation Leader recently released a list of the top 25 innovators in the space right now! Here’s a few to look out for:
Ozlem Tureci & Ugur Sahin - Co-Founders of BioNTech
Through a partnership with Pfizer, they developed one of the fastest vaccines in human history, making this pivot in January 2020.
Elon Musk - CEO, Tesla & SpaceX
Seems to be a bit obvious, but Elon Musk had a big year in 2020 creating the first fully autonomous electric vehicle, as well as the release of the Model Y From Tesla. SpaceX was also the first privately held company to send astronauts to orbit the International Space Station, and this year SpaceX had the successful take off and landing of the star ship.
Ted Sarandos - CEO & Chief Content Officer, Netflix
We all know that Netflix had a great year in 2020 with everyone staying at home the entire time, but outside of record numbers of subscribers and views, Netflix also scored 35 Oscars nominations in 2020. Netflix also made a big impact in subtitled spaces bringing international films to global audiences.
What qualities do these innovators have that we could all incorporate in our lives?
Kaitlin Milliken says that these innovators have a deep understanding of the end user and their customer, spending a lot of time staying connected with them, understanding their needs, doing focus groups and surveys, and testing in the real world.
In the case of BioNTech, Ozlem Tureci & Ugur Sahin identified an issue early and invested the right resources and found successful partnerships.
All of these innovators might have ideas that seem a bit out there, but they have a vision and are willing to take risks in the right way.
Are you celebrating innovators in your own life? What to be an innovator in your own industry? Let us know in the comments!
