Thomas Alva Edison

Thomas Alva Edison

“ Edison is often romanticized as a lone inventor.

Less well known is his invention of the modern research laboratory using

teams of inventors.

Edison knew that to generate ideas a sustained and methodical effort is required. ”

‘Edison in the Boardroom’, Julie L. Davis
