#04, Building Inovation Capital
 What is the spending power that innovators use to solve problems? Such capital is beyond focusing on financial or social or even political capital. People who have solved problems and created solutions that have disrupted society into a better place were only able to do so because of this kind of capital. In this podcast, I will be sharing how you can build your INNOVATION CAPITAL and what I call IMPRESSION AMPLIFIERS with notable examples of people who have done so in history successfully. It takes more than building inventions to have an innovation capital, a kind of capital which any founder, businessman, visionary or community leader must have.   To listen and subscribe to be notified of our subsequent podcast, click the link below https://linktr.ee/futurspark
