Hey Guys,
Interesting article in the Washington Post about how innovation is being stalled because companies are too busy copying one another to come out with new products.
Here is a link if you're interested in the article:
Enough with these tired, copycat innovations - The Washington Post
I have been working in the Medical Devices SW industry for about 4 years now and realize how competitive the SW market is becoming all across the board, causing companies to try shortcuts in copying innovations. At my workplace in Philips Ultrasound, we emphasize heavily on "meaningful innovations" that are grown in house at our R&D facility. I am so glad to have started my career here in R&D and learn around so many principal scientists (with tons and tons of patents under their belts).
Have you guys seen or been affected by any of these "copycat innovations"? I would love to hear more?
