I’ve written a great deal about the theories around education innovation ecosystems, including exploring who the major players are in the ecosystem, but how does one actually go about building an innovation ecosystem? Successful ecosystem builders do their work face-to-face, and virtually, through near-constant interaction. They never expect immediate returns on their investments of knowledge, time, or advice. Here I’ve tried to use our work in Philadelphia as an example of how one goes about engaging with and building an ecosystem.
