| The Myths of Innovation |

Google Tech Talks
May 14, 2007
ABSTRACT
Much of what we know about innovation is
wrong. That's the bet this talk takes, as it
romps through the history of innovation,
dispelling the mythologies we've constructed
about how we got here. This talk, loosely
based on the upcoming O'Reilly book (May
2007), will help you to recognize the myths,
understand why they're popular (even if you
don't believe in them), and how to use the
truth to help you innovate today.

Open Innovation in Services
CITRIS Distinguished Speaker: Steve Wright
from BT
Steve Wright, the Head of Strategic Research
at BT, will speak at CITRIS.
Abstract:
Over the last few years, BT has been
transforming its business from a telco to a
networked service provider, based on "new
wave" revenues. BT's 21st Century Network
(21CN) is an important part of that
transition. It is an end-to-end IP-based
network, which will consolidate BT's complex
networks and systems on to a single
infrastructure. But it is not simply a
network transformation; rather it is a
radical overhaul of products, systems,
process and a fundamental remaking of our
business around the delivery of software
defined services. In particular, it will
enable the creation of new converged
communications and information services -- by
BT, third parties and our customers. 21CN is
a platform for open innovation in
communications services.
For a telco, this is a major transformation,
particularly for the people at the heart of
the systems and processes. Of course, this
change is taking place in the context of
developments in internet and web services and
businesses that are at least as considerable
and significant, particularly for BT's
transformed businesses, so it would be brave
to predict BT's future trajectory. Even so,
we discuss some initiatives and developments
that we believe will be important for this
trajectory.
Biography:
Steve Wright is Head of Strategic Research in

the focus of the industry) from materials and
devices, through protocols and systems to
services and solutions. Prior to joining BT,

delivery, mobility, LAN and Internet
technologies. He was also the founding
