How NASA empowers its employees to pitch the next big idea
In short: Discover how NASA's Agency Innovation Mission Day fosters creativity and cross-center collaboration to solve technical and organizational challenges through employee-led initiatives.
The video covers the Agency Innovation Mission (AIM) Day, an event held on November 1 to celebrate employee innovation. It features a keynote by Deputy Administrator Dava Newman, broadcast from Kennedy Space Center, focusing on the importance of agencywide collaboration.
The event was a project of the NASA FIRST leadership program, which aims to develop future agency leaders. A key highlight is the NASA Innovation Kick Start competition, where employees pitch original concepts or solutions to existing problems. To support these efforts, a total of $100,000 was made available, with up to $10,000 provided for equipment and supplies to launch each winning project.
