π± **OBSERVING PATTERNS β BUILDING PATHWAYS**
Sometimes innovation isn't about creating something that didn't exist.
It's about **seeing connections that others haven't yet joined together.**
Consider a few seemingly unrelated patterns:
π Backyard trees producing more fruit than their owners can use.
π₯ Home growers and small producers with surplus food.
β»οΈ Perfectly good produce being wasted.
π People wanting fresher, locally produced alternatives.
π€ Communities becoming increasingly disconnected from the people producing food around them.
π± Almost everyone carrying technology capable of connecting people according to location.
Each of those things already exists.
The opportunity appears when someone asks:
**βWhat if we connect them?β**
That's why the Western Australian-developed **Incaberry App** caught my attention.
Its premise is beautifully straightforward β provide a pathway through which people can discover, buy, sell, trade or share locally grown and produced food.
The technology isn't really the innovation.
**The connection is.**
Pattern β Surplus exists.
Pattern β Demand exists.
Pattern β Waste exists.
Pattern β People are geographically disconnected.
Pattern β The technology to connect them already exists.
**Pathway β Bring them together.**
I've had the opportunity to explore incaberry and subsequently speak with its founder, Brehoni. What particularly impressed me was the thinking behind the project and her willingness to engage seriously with questions and ideas about how it can continue to develop.
I have no commercial connection with incaberry. I'm sharing it because it illustrates something fundamental to the philosophy behind **Eaglehawk Concepts**.
We are surrounded by problems, resources, technologies and opportunities that frequently exist in isolation.
Perhaps one of the great challenges of our time isn't always finding another new resource.
Perhaps it is becoming better at **recognising the patterns and building the pathways between what we already have.**
