What does innovation mean to and in India? What are the predominant
sites of activity where Indians innovate, and under what situations
do they work or fail? This book addresses these all-important
questions arising within diverse Indian contexts: informal economy,
low-cost settings, large business groups, entertainment and
copyright industries, an evolving pharma sector, a poorly organized
and appallingly underfunded public health system, social
enterprises for the urban poor, and innovations-for-the-millions.
Its balanced perspective on India's promises and failings makes it
a valuable addition for those who believe that India's future banks
heavily on its ability to leapfrog using innovation, as well as
those sceptical of the Indian state's belief in the potential of
private enterprise and innovation. It also provides critical
insights on innovation in general, the most important of which
being the highly context-specific, context-driven character of the
innovation project.
