KIN Winter Dialogue 2009

Innovating Through Times of Trouble and Plenty

KIN was welcomed to the U.S. Military Southern Command base in Miami, Florida for our Winter Dialogue event. The theme was how to defend and extend innovation when it matters most.


Since its inception, KIN has held dialogues and summits at corporate headquarters, research labs and education centers across the United
States – wherever innovation is incubating.
