Interesting lknniig innovation with values. I think of innovation flowing from market needs. (Of course market needs, in this day and age, generally flow from values. My son is involved as a scientist in creating fuel and fuel systems that are more efficient and reduce the amount of petroleum required others are involved in creating fuel by less eco-degrading means. Quite frankly, the company he works for has to make money and thus want to market lucrative patents. Nevertheless their sources of funding are from large non-profit,ethical foundations. Just some thoughts.
