That’s the kind of thinking advocated by Naveen Jain, winner of the Albert Einstein Technology Medal and founder of some of the most innovative compa...

“Exponential thinking is when you start to see things from a different mindset,”

“It’s not about thinking outside the box; it’s about thinking in a completely different box.”
