The paper outlines how the principles of convergent innovation (CI) can be applied to bring about a transformation in the pulse value chain. The paper presents three pioneering CI initiatives--two in conception and one in operation--by various actors in the pulse ecosystem, which are delivering economic and human development impact in particular segments of the pulse value chain. It goes on to propose the way forward to scale up these efforts and connect them into a roadmap so as to achieve transformation throughout society, calling into action a number of actors in the ecosystem.
本文概述了趋同创新（CI）原则如何应用于脉冲价值链的转型。本文介绍了脉冲生态系统中各种参与者的三个开创性的 CI 举措——两个处于构想阶段，一个处于运营阶段——它们在脉冲价值链的特定环节带来了经济和人类发展的影响。接着，本文提出了扩大这些努力并将它们连接成路线图的方法，以便在整个社会实现转型，呼吁生态系统中的许多参与者采取行动。
