Feedback on R8

Thomas Edison famously said, “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.” As an Insider, our team will provide you with feedback on your idea if it makes it to the final presentation stage (G7) but is not selected by the sponsor. This feedback will shed some light on the question of why the sponsor ultimately decided not to move forward with your idea. This allows you to either improve upon it or move on to your next idea, depending on the feedback.
