La version Française: [[Circuit des idées]]
On a warm Roman spring morning in 30 AD, a young man named Appius walked down the Via Sacra toward the Foro Romano. He had a bounce in his step as he anticipated the many discussions that would ensue when he got to the Basilica Julia, the grand hall in the centre of the Forum. The Basilica was the place where Appius went to hear about issues, proposals, and news from faraway places. He was excited to share his ideas with other smart minds.

On that spring day in Rome, Appius was optimistic that his ideas would be accepted within a culture of innovation and be part of a process to make them a reality. Modern government organizations can provide the same inspiration to their innovators by adopting the Idea Journey.
