Learning and innovation’s skills are increasingly recognized as key factors separating students who are prepared formore complex environments of life and work in the twenty-first century, and those who are not. The relationshipbetween the industry and the academia is undoubtedly in Mexico and several countries nowadays a very importantsocial and institutional phenomenon. Academy and Industry have always been cooperating in a win-win manner. Overtime, this relationship has evolved in many mechanisms where learning skills developed strongly, but at present,innovation skills are taking more relevance. Efforts like an “IoT to the Cloud Innovation Labs Network” implementedby the Intel® Guadalajara Design Center in Mexico are contributing to foster the innovation’s competencies and skillsfrom students and have been having a profound impact at the local ecosystem at each one of the states where these labsare established. As part of the results, this labs network has been bringing more than 200 innovative projects, indifferent areas like smart agriculture, Internet of Things, automation, wearables, smart hearth, and robots, amongothers. Additionally, more than 3200 people (students, teachers, individuals from the industry and government) havebeen receiving some training coming from this labs network. All the courses and workshops have been deployed in atrain the trainers’ model, bringing a strong, scalable possibility and impact, to the local ecosystems and each one of thestates.

This article explores what the work of Sigmund Freud has to offer those searching for a more spiritual and philosophical exploration of the human experience. At the early stages of my psychotherapy training, I shared with many peers an aversion to Freud’s work, driven by a perception of a mechanistic, clinical approach to the human psyche and of a persistent psychosexual focus. This article traces my own attempt to grapple with his work and to push through this resistance. Bettelheim’s (1991) treatise that Freud was searching for man’s soul provides a more sympathetic lens through which to explore Freud’s writing, one which enabled me to discover a rich depth which had not previously been obscured. This article is an account of my journey to a new appreciation of Freud’s work. It identifies a number of challenges to Bettelheim’s argument, whilst also indicating how his revised translation allowed a new understanding of the relevance of Freud’s work to the modern reader. This account may be of interest to those exploring classical psychotherapeutic literature as well as those guiding them through that process.
