Community Economic Ecosystem Development

Innovation in Motion is part of an industry focused, design based, applied research framework that studies how best systems connect and improve in public good ecosystems.


  Workforce systems are best envisioned with stakeholders including employers.  Industry allows for multiple businesses and community partners, all sharing in the outcomes.

Technology has become more than a tool to perform a duty.  It is now a way to connect with each other, share ideas and friendships, and vision the future.


Enabling innovation in a social networking framework requires governance and trust.  NMTCLF's Design Based Research explores how data and process allow for scalable growth.
