Its not cozy in an incubator
This report is "Maverick" research, designed to spark new, unconventional insights. Maverick research is unconstrained by Gartner's typical broad consensus-formation process to deliver breakthrough, innovative and disruptive ideas from our research incubator.
The freedom to publish research under the Maverick rules is not without oversight. First, this research idea to speculate on how assistive tech could get stretched into "superabilities" in the workplace was one of 20 selected this year. Out of over 100 proposals. The first hurdle cleared in May. Then there was the pitch at the All Company Research Meeting. A good dose of tough love from some very smart people - Thanks.
Thank you to my coauthors. Pete Basiliere is not only the expert on 3D printing, but also inspired bigger and bolder thinking. And Melanie Lougee led the project and kept the research focused on the workplace impact. Tip of the hat to both of you. We do great work together.
If you are a Garter client, give it a read. I would like to hear your thoughts on the research. For everyone else, lets talk.
Cheers
