Joanne Spigner Judges 9th Annual Innovation Challenge

For nine years running the brightest and most creative graduate students from universities all over the world have been matched with leading companies in an experience designed to address our most pressing business and social innovation challenges.

Joanne judged the product development category, sponsored by GE in its quest to transform transportation by making electric car charging stations more accessible, quick, and easy. GE’s new electric vehicle charger, the GE WattStation™, is designed to help address these challenges.

MBA teams were challenged to: "Imagine how you would use one of GE’s most transformative products to make your life simpler, more beautiful and healthy." Winners will be announced in early 2012. Read about the Innovation Challenge
