Synapse Innovation Summit “Looks Toward Smarter Communities”

Published by SRQ Media Thursday, January 17

On January 23-24, city and county leaders from across Florida will gather in Tampa as part of the Synapse Innovation Summit—a series of workshops and seminars organized by Bradenton-based Spark Growth to kick-off discussions on moving toward “smarter” communities. These workshop sessions are designed to bring key learnings from leading worldwide smart city programs back to Florida city and county leadership to learn and define together what “smarter” looks like across the state and into the future. The Synapse Innovation Summit expects to bring 5000 participants over two days.

Workshop formats are invitation-only for city/county leaders, but there will be two “Toward Smarter Communities” general sessions available for all Synapse attendees both Wednesday and Thursday at 11am. The first will feature Bright Spots across Florida, highlighting transformative “Smart Community” stories, and the second will showcase “Emerging Trends in Connected Communities.” Tickets are available at the website below.

Think Big.

What can you really do? You can change the world! That may sound scary, but it starts by showing up, taking action, making your voice heard.

At Spark Growth – we start by showing up. It’s funny how much success in life comes simply by showing up. If you don’t show up, you don’t get to play.

We take action. Thinking big doesn’t mean you have to start big – by starting small and building trust, you can do bigger things. You may have heard the old adage, “How do you eat an elephant?” And the answer is, “One bite at a time.”

Read our post on 5 Often Overlooked Issues That Can Keep You from Reaching Your Goals.

We participate in the conversation. This is the conversation of collaboration, asking “What Could We Do Together?”

By thinking big, you can reach for your ultimate. Your Massive Transformative Purpose is the higher, aspirational purpose of your organization. With your MTP big enough to rally around, it inspires and it moves people and hearts. Start small, build trust by doing little things, and move forward toward BIG!

A Massive Transformative Purpose (MTP) is the higher, aspirational purpose of the organization, capturing the hearts and minds of those both inside and (especially) outside of the organization. (Don’t miss this video about MTP)

After years of working across business, technology, education, funding, community, government, arts and non-profit sectors; we at Spark Growth aren’t constrained by the silos that many people live and work in. Our global context and consortium of thought leaders provides us with a unique vantage point for creative problem solving. At Spark Growth we Think Big, and we can show you how too.
