Jillian Grennan exposes the hidden inequalities inside the world of invention. Drawing on data from the Diversity Pilots Initiative, she reveals how workplace culture, biased management practices, and narrow incentive structures prevent many promising ideas—especially from women and people of color—from ever making it to the patent stage.
Grennan’s work offers a roadmap to more inclusive innovation—where creativity, collaboration, and social good drive discovery, not just profit.
