Built for speed in Dubai

Last week after my presentation at the Gartner Symposium, I carved out a little play time with my friend Peter Sage. Not only is Peter a champion entrepreneur, but also the creator of Space Energy a super cool project to harness energy from the sun using giant space-based solar panels. You may recall that he was a guest on my Visionary Chats program in which we discussed this visionary project.

But back to playing in Dubai. Related to the Koenigsegg case study in my book, I have a special fascination with supercars. But then again, who doesn’t? Which is why Peter’s brand new McLaren Spider was especially rewarding to experience. By all accounts, the car is a marvel of innovation, positioned to give Koenigsegg quite a challenge as the market innovator.
