Callaghan Innovation – building the plane while they fly it
(sticK - 26 March 2013 ) There’s a term that’s particularly loved by IT-oriented start-ups, ‘building the plane while you’re flying it’.
The business case put forward for and by Callaghan Innovation doesn’t use the term.
However, that’s what I interpret from the ‘Purpose of this document’ comment on its fourth page. (It follows an earlier sentence – Callaghan Innovation’s role does not currently exist in the New Zealand innovation system, and it is in effect a “start-up” organisation. [CI’s quotation marks]).
