CPH 127: A Blog About The Influence Of Design On Innovation
cph127 is a "... brand spanking new blog about the major influence of design as a motor for innovation, and like wise the other way around. We are neither 100% design-focused nor are we 100% business-focused" per their introduction. Some amazing links there, including the just completed "Better by Design" Conference in New Zealand where Tom Peters and Tim Brown of IDEO were among the speakers.
Take a look at business stories from companies who "demonstrate the strategic use of design as a means to increase business value."
