AUGUST 2014 UPDATE
AutoHarvest is gearing up to present our advanced manufacturing ecosystem to an invitation-only workshop of the leading Japanese intellectual property owners in Tokyo at IPBC Japan. Intellectual Asset Management's article 'Engines of Collaboration' presents AutoHarvest.org as a model of the open innovation and collaboration that is helping the US auto industry return to prominence and success.
Innovation Hub member, US Cluster Mapping, shows the work of the Harvard Business School to pioneer a powerful new tool providing deep current data and insights on America’s growing regional technology centers. Our supporter, the New Economy Initiative Foundation of Southeast Michigan captured Innovation Advisory Council members at the Ford Motor Company and Visteon Corporation discussing how AutoHarvest aids their innovation in a brief video.
