Do you think necessity is the mother of invention? Not always. There is a very thin line between brilliant innovation and absolute failure. In fact, many groundbreaking inventions were accidental discoveries. So, why are some organizations prone to accidental discoveries while others see them pass by as uninterested observers? In this keynote session, Dr. Kwok will share the history of IBM Db2 and why he believes you can’t overlook an idea—because you never know if it might evolve into a multi-billion-dollar enterprise. Following Dr. Kwok, Libby Ingrassia will provide an update on the IBM Champions Program.
