By the end of 2009, I had completed a sequel to our (we were all of seven authors) previous book "Design-Inspired Innovation" -- the follow-up being a workbook.

I've spent my life combining innovation work and studies with futures studies and often with an emphasis on information technology. My early theoretical efforts into innovation brought me into creativity and creative problem solving methods, my responsibility, during some twenty years, for a foundation on innovation and entrepreneurship research gave me some insights into the latter too, combined with being engaged in some 20 entrepreneurial endeavors. So far, I have 71 books to my name (some thus edited or co-authored).

I share my time between Stockholm, the Stockholm archipelago, and French Catalonia. I have run 32 marathons but my health may not be sufficient for any more. My wife Gull-May Holst is an artist with a web page that can be found googling on her name + paintings.
