includes the following elements.

• Disruptive nature. An innovative solution is a game changer. It springs from the very core of a problem, system or structure and tries things a different way. It displaces past precedent and the status quo to bring greater affordability, accessibility and long-term success.
• Inclusivity. Real problems are complex, diverse and deep...and so must be their solutions. Effective resolution collaborates across sectors, cultures and comfortable boundaries to guarantee an authentic and effective approach.

• Self-sustainability. For something to have lasting impact, its design should be economically and ecologically self-sustaining, long-term and efficient.

• Scalability. Global change is not a one-man, one-woman or one-organization job. In order to truly impact society, an idea must have the ability to be replicated and applied on a greater scale.

• Creativity. True entrepreneurship involves a level of ingenuity that ventures down uncharged paths and explores unique possibilities.
