Japan has been an innovator and still is! Great story from Forbes.

http://www.forbes.com/sites/bensin/2016/06/20/how-a-little-known-japanese-phone-company-is-looking-to-help-japan-reclaim-its-tech-throne/3/

Do you like The Huffington Post as much as we do? Well, spend a few minutes on this interesting piece on why YOUR should be more involved in your health diagnosis from the CEO of Iodine. A smart and informative read!
