Rules of I&E Network: 

1. Break the Rules and Dream Challenge conventional thinking. Innovation thrives when people think beyond traditional boundaries and norms. See the invisible. 

2. Open Doors and Listen Be accessible and open to new ideas and people. Listening actively creates opportunities for unexpected connections. 

3. Trust and Be Trusted Trust is the foundation of innovation ecosystems. Take small risks with others to build mutual confidence and collaboration. 

4. Experiment and Develop Value action over perfection. Try, fail, learn, and try again. Seek help and ask questions. 

5. Seek Fairness, Not Advantage (No Selling) Build relationships and partnerships on mutual respect and fairness, rather than trying to “win” at the expense of others. 

6. Fail and Persist Failure is not only acceptable, it's expected. The key is to persist and keep moving forward. 

7. Pay It Forward Help others without expecting immediate returns. Generosity seeds goodwill and future collaboration.
