“If you have an apple and I have an apple and we
exchange these apples then you and I will still each have
one apple.
But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we
exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas.”
George Bernard Shaw
1. A good idea - commitment and passion
2. Consumer insight - key
3. Make a difference - innovation
4. Dynamic environment: the power to sustain - alliance
