A busy Day 2 at the 2020 Niagara Investment Summit concluded with a fireside chat with David Skok, Founder and Editor-in-Chief of The Logic and OBIO CEO Gail Garland.

Mr. Skok spoke about how he was influenced by Clay Christensen, an American academic and business consultant who developed the theory of disruptive innovation and whom Mr. Skok met while he was a Nieman Fellow at Harvard University. The theory states that disruptive innovations tend to be produced by outsiders, such as entrepreneurs in start-ups, rather than existing companies, a recognizable concept to many in the audience.

Much like the approach he took in founding The Logic and its approach to writing stories about innovation across industries, Mr. Skok said a disruptive innovator must go against the grain and make courageous choices.
