Top 10 Innovation Slideshares

Below you will find the Top 10 innovation slideshares as ranked by me from the submissions I received for the Front End of Innovation (FEI USA) contest and from the thousands of innovation presentations on slideshare. I’m sure there are probably better ones, but I couldn’t find them.

If I missed some, please add a comment with a link. If it is really good (and downloadable), I’ll add it to our Innovation Excellence slideshare channel.
