Searching for Web 2.0 & Social Media Innovators
There's a lot of talk and research out there on the value of social media for marketing, branding, and PR. Amongst the 700+ people I follow on Twitter I'd wager that 90% of the tweets touch on this to some degree. But what about the use of social media for innovation efforts? That got us thinking here at Kalypso.

Increased Regulatory Scrutiny in Consumer Products
Four reasons why industry leaders aren’t losing sleep
