This document discusses innovation and challenges organizations and individuals to think differently. It notes that curiosity and openness to new ideas can fade with age, making people resistant to change and innovation. However, this "dinosaur" mentality is a mental rather than physical state. Many successful companies were started by people under 30, and the document questions what unique opportunities Aibel provides for people in that age group to contribute new ideas. It issues an "innovation challenge" for a bottom-up project and provides contact information for further engagement.
