Innovation in Japan

New ideas create better quality of life and wealth

Japan has grown big and conservative.  The once darling of innovation and copy cats has become staid, slow and complacent.

Banks support only conservative, big businesses. Gone were its support for entrepreneurs in the likes of Akio Morita and Konosuke Matsushita

However NHK reports some interesting changes:

1. Moonlighting is now encouraged so that employees can submit innovative ideas.

2.  Special clothes for breastfeeding mom. There is a company and has been around for 20 years specializing only on such clothing
