“To innovate, you’ve got to break the rules,” said Alexandra Watkins, keynote speaker of the 2014 Innovators Awards of Excellence luncheon. As a disruptor in branding and founder of Eat My Words, Alexandra’s statement is her mantra. And with that theme, she kicked off the event presented by SAMCEDA, San Mateo County Economic Development Association. The Awards celebrated the businesses that are penetrating new ground, growing fast – many internationally – and doing it all from headquarters in San Mateo County.
