Some great ideas are just waiting to be “found” and transplanted to a new geography or population. See this interesting article on quinoa, a recently “discovered” superfood for Western palates. You see this often with food and cuisines and how they spread (think of new foods you find at restaurants or supermarkets), but in other industries as well. Ideas working in one place are just waiting to be imported and implemented elsewhere; a small reason in addition to many others to be more international and open-minded in our outlook.
