An introduction to GIX
The Global Innovation Exchange (GIX) is a new model that is changing the game in innovation education and practice. It is a collaboration between universities and industry partners from around the world focused on developing leaders in innovation. The first two academic partners are the University of Washington and Tsinghua University, with foundational support from Microsoft. More universities and companies are joining and in a decade more than 3,000 learners will enroll. This new model combines learning and practice focused on solving pressing global challenges.
