Thanks to many of you, our Innovators-in-Residence and Innovative Ideas programs received an overwhelmingly positive response. We received more than 200 applications, submissions and nominations. Our team truly appreciates the high level of participation and interest in these exciting programs.
We are reviewing all applications and are thrilled to see innovations of great diversity, both in the problems and opportunities addressed and their creative approaches. Many of these innovations will be featured on our Web site, this blog and at our 2009 Innovation Summit, October 29 in Washington, DC. Mark your calendars now and plan to be there!
During the coming weeks, we will share with the innovation@cfed community more information about the innovative people who responded to our online opportunities and their creative solutions. Sign up now to become part of the community, if you haven't already!
We'd love to hear your thoughts on the application and nomination processes. Please leave a comment below or contact us at innovation@cfed.org.
We are excited to work with so many enthusiastic innovators. One community member wrote in to say thank you to our innovation@cfed team "for opening a door of opportunity giving birth to the dreams and visions of many Americans!" We thank you for sharing those dreams and visions.
