Tasty Recipe
“I recently wrote a keynote speech for an R&D executive on R&D partnerships in Asia. The topic was completely new to me and the speaker was based in Asia so we didn’t have many opportunities to talk and brainstorm together. Ultimately, based on multiple sources, we developed a recipe for success for strategic partnerships in Asia and crafted the speech around this recipe.”
