Comments on: Insights into R&D: Elaborating on my tweets http://www.myrbopportunity.com/2009/10/26/1817 Reckitt Benckiser, RB, the company that makes Vanish, Airwick, Finish, Veet and many leading brands… whatever you’d like to call us, we’re one of the world’s fastest-growing companies in household, health and personal care products. We want to give you a window into our world and see what ‘opportunity’ means to us. We’re one of those places where no two days are the same, where you’re expected to put your money where your mouth is, challenge the status quo, and do it fast. Whatever ‘it’ is. Our bloggers will be sharing with you their thoughts and experiences to give you a real understanding of the breadth of global opportunity here and the diversity of RB, Many will be people who are on graduate or management trainee programmes and some will be well established in their careers here.

For individuals or companies with issues that do no involve intellectual property I expect it will prove very useful. I am unlikely to use Hypios as a seeker, as the nature of my job means that any issues that I need solutions for are likely to involve IP and therefore require me to set up a non-disclosure agreement with any party contracted to find the solution. I’m also unlikely to become a solver as it’s too close to my occupation to be a hobby and I cannot use company time to solve other people’s problems. Best of luck with Hypios. As I say it’s a good idea. Edd Anthony,
