71: Dev & Jennifer Jennings (Alberta) on New Terrain Pilsner and An Embedded Research Project

For this episode, we continue with our guests from the previous episode: Jennifer and Dev Jennings. They’re both professors in the Department of Strategy, Entrepreneurship and Management at the University of Alberta’s School of Business. They’re also the first married couple to appear on Creative Distillation, as well as the first to drink wine on the podcast. Over a pilsner from Golden, Colorado's New Terrain Brewing, Dev discusses his latest research, currently in progress, that examines how science-based products and processes get passed along to corporations (or to startup entrepreneurs from corporations) to be developed for real world application. His paper in progress looks at this through the lens of the Alberta Tar Sands industry. Dev’s findings thus far, which involve not just corporate/scientific/community interactions but also observations about gender roles and AI, are fascinating — as is the fact that an effort to commercialize a product is at the center of Dev’s project: this “action” research is another Creative Distillation first! Enjoy and cheers! —— This episode of Creative Distillation was recorded on the front porch of the Chautauqua Mission House at the Reversing the Arrow Conference, held in Boulder in June 2024. Dev’s paper is yet-to-be-titled and still in progress.
