This book traces a path from a recognized gap and an intention to a new product, category or market that others can recognize as an external fact. An opportunity alone is not an outcome. The creator must describe a target reality, assemble capabilities and people, build an artifact, test it in use and see evidence of adoption. The book joins creative ambition with verification so that a compelling hypothesis can be distinguished from a reality that exists beyond its author.
