In the global market economy, the ability of nations to create,
absorb and commercialise innovations determines their
competitiveness. Innovation is closely linked to the creation of
wealth in a modern knowledge economy. Value addition to raw
materials in India through applications of technology has remained
low compared to other nations such as Israel, Finland, Japan, and
South Korea. Increasing labour productivity through technology
change and innovation is the main route for the creation of
additional wealth to enterprises and better wages to employees.
Since Independence, India has endeavoured to bring economic and
social change through science and technology. The visionaries who
led the growth of innovation and technology in India were convinced
that such an approach could play an important role in transforming
India in to a modern, industrialised society. Experience and
results show that this confidence was well placed. There is a vast
untapped potential in India for wealth creation by increasing the
levels of innovation content in the entire economic development
activities of the country. It is a tall call but an essential one,
if the current levels of growth are to be maintained. This book
contains 15 research papers, contributed by experts on the subject,
which provide deep insights into the interface between poverty
reduction, development and innovations.
