When we talk about innovation, oftentimes we think about those in technology. But innovation goes beyond artificial intelligence, robotics, and quantum computing. Beyond the bits and bytes, it is also about changing mindsets and thinking critically and differently. It is about being comfortable with the uncomfortable. It is about allowing ourselves the time and opportunity to learn to be clumsy and to embrace failure as part of our journey.  In this episode of One Vision, Theo chats with Jennifer Sertl, Founder and President of Agility3R and Adjunct Professor at RIT, on innovation and the importance of cross-pollination. Perhaps it’s time to slow down and imagine a little.

Paddy Power is a veteran of the gaming industry.  As a fourth generation ‘bookie’ he has helped create, develop and ultimately personify one of the wagering world’s most famous brands, ‘Paddy Power’.Paddy Power (the brand!) is a cornerstone of the Flutter Group, which has grown to become the world’s leading gaming and wagering company, with brands including Fanduel under its umbrella.Paddy’s expertise throughout his career has been mainly focussed on the fearless pursuit of creating an iconic, relevant and relatable brand.   Paddy Power has consistently been the most famous betting brand in the UK & Ireland and has won countless awards for various campaigns over the past two decades, both within and outside it’s sector.Paddy’s successful campaigns are as varied as setting up a ‘bookie stall’ in St. Peter’s Square to shout odds on the next Pope during the 2005 Papal Election (the Vatican Guard were none too pleased!), to launching a ‘Rainbow Laces’ campaign, persuading Premier League footballers to wear Rainbow Laces to raise awareness of homophobia in Football.‘What would nobody else dare do?’ Is a question Paddy and his team often asked, and the answer invariably led to an unexpected and successful campaign.  Like persuading Prof. Stephen Hawking to become a Paddy Power brand Ambassador for the FIFA World Cup in Brazil in 2014 - his job was to mathematically calculate how to take the perfect penalty to help England get over their awful record in penalty shootouts….as it turned out England were so bad they didn’t make it far enough in the tournament to even have a penalty shoot out! In more recent times Paddy has hosted a 26 show series of The Green Room, a weekly sports & entertainment show on Irish national TV, and has made various sports and culture documentaries on behalf of Paddy Power (the brand) as they spread their reach away from the traditional core territories.This type of uninhibited, creative thinking and action (along with a vastly superior social following to its peers) has consistently been the difference which has created an unrivalled brand affinity among Paddy Power advocates.As a founder and President of ASX, Paddy's ambition is to facilitate a new era of engagement among sports fans where they can be entertained on their own terms rather than the more traditional terms of those gone before.
