McKinsey maps the world's innovation clusters

How innovative is your city? McKinsey Digital has released a new innovation study of the world's leading cities, grouping them into one of four different categories -- "hot springs," "dynamic oceans," "silent lakes," and "shrinking pools." The most innovative cities are "dynamic oceans," while the "hot springs" are the types of cities with a lot of economic momentum, but in need of a little Creative Class infusion to make them even more vibrant and diverse. In the chart above, Silicon Valley stands alone as the dominant innovation cluster in the world.

While it's not a real stretch to see Silicon Valley as the dominant "dynamic ocean" of innovation in the world, who knew that Kiel, Germany and Miyazaki, Japan are among the hottest up-and-coming innovation clusters in the world? (In fact, there's a whole handful of Japanese cities that made the cut as "hot springs" of innovation) And, conversely, that New York, Chicago and Philadelphia are "silent lakes" of innovation? By some measures, even the Twin Cities are more vibrant than their East Coast counterparts.

How to integrate Garmin GPS 18 with MSN's or Google's satellite and
street maps? Is there an appealing option? The software that ships
with the Garmin falls short of the MSN and Google counterparts.

Thanks Adam – we did come across that link, but weren’t convinced because there was no mention at all of Country Fair or animal illustrations, which seemed weird. This John Hanna seems to be a humorous, black & white newspaper cartoonist, although I guess he could have done something like this on the side. The dates he was in London seem to match up (Country Life illustrations are all during the late fifties). It says he usually operated under the name “Wiz”, but a search for “Wiz” and “John Hanna” unfortunately doesn’t seem to turn up anything of use.

But if you know that It wasn't long after job boards were "invented" that someone thought of the concept of job scraping. If you can't get enough vacancies posted on your site why not simply "copy" them from elsewhere, thus giving the impression of a busy job board. Some job boards do this covertly and jobseekers may not even be aware the job was originally posted elsewhere, whereas for other job boards this is their clear business model (including to a certain extent the job search engine sites like clickajob).

However, when a site scrapes your vacancies, adds additional (and untrue) information and then refuses to remove them it's got to be pretty annoying!

We were on the road all day Sunday, driving through France back to Belgium, and the BBC provided regular real time updates on the state of the vote. French commentators noted that Benyamin Netanyahu, who treated Vice President Biden with barely concealed contempt as little as a week ago, will be meeting a President Obama newly invigorated by his domestic victory.

The formation of innovation clusters – IT for automotive innovation in Pune and for telecom innovation in Chennai have already been initiated – and the evolution of collaborative programmes with educational institutions needs to be intensified this year.

Thank you for this post. Your thoughts are right on the money. The worst thing about it is that sexism and "man-off" is something women, particularly younger women, are afraid to talk about, not wanting to seem like we can't make it on our own merits ... and yet, when we don't talk about it, we don't inform and help each other, which keeps us in the dark and discourages change.

Mmmm, looks absolutely delicious. I used to look forward to Caribbean black cake at weddings and other special events. Then I became a vegan, and that was the end of that. I'd love to sample this! Any chance you'd be willing to share the recipe? :)
