| − | |Hello, I’m Bruce Radburn, born in Ottawa, and have lived in Montreal, Toronto, Vevey and D.R. with lots of world travel. Although I started my career in international, I’ve shifted towards public service innovation for many years including the Innovation Hubs & Labs, BluePrint and Beyond 2020. I’ve had the opportunity to help launch three employee idea programs, developed innovation as part of a 25-year plan at the SBU at Nestlé S.A. in Switzerland. My experience and passion for innovation stuck with my as I returned to Ottawa, and now I’m a Senior Innovation Advisor. I like to practice what I preach as an entrepreneur at heart, try to be a first-mover, and for example contributing ideas and creating new events for GCWCC as the Campaign Lead for 2023. Also a self-proclaimed futurist, with long time studies in strategic foresight.
