The Innovators Network Foundation (INF) is a Washington D.C.-based, non-profit research organization, focused on the future of work. Global unemployment represents a crisis on many levels, particularly among youth where unemployment rates are over 13%. Unemployment is a primary driver for poverty, disease, slowed economic growth, and even terrorism. Yet we see that there is work that needs to be done and jobs that need to be filled worldwide, which suggests deficiencies in education, infrastructure, and the application of technology. The Innovators Network Foundation is committed to research and the pursuit of innovative solutions for students and entrepreneurs around the world. IN advises governments and educational institutions on technology and trends while partnering with non-profits and commercial innovators to explore solutions for the short (labor mobility), medium (infrastructure, education), and long (education) terms. | The Innovators Network Foundation (INF) is a Washington D.C.-based, non-profit research organization, focused on the future of work.
