Diversities of Innovation

Hosted by the India Observatory

32L.G.03, 32 Lincoln's Inn Fields

Speaker

Professor Ulrich Hilpert

Chair

Dr Ruth Kattumuri

At this book launch the editor will present the key themes of the book, followed by a discussion on the major issues that it addresses.

Innovation is often understood exclusively in terms of the economy, but it is definitely a result of human labour and ingenuity, and of the relationships among individuals and social groups. Some societies and governmental structures are clearly more successful than others: they act in divergent ways, fostering innovation and employment, and they utilize varied opportunities from different fields of research, from new products and from their educational systems.

Ulrich Hilpert is Professor and Chair of Comparative Government in the Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences at Friedrich Schiller University, Jena, Germany.

Ruth Kattumuri is Co-Director at the LSE India Observatory.

The India Observatory (@LSE_IO), set up in 2006, is a Centre to develop and enhance research and programmes related to India's economy, politics and society. It is involved in public policy engagement in, and with, India and also works in collaboration with international partners for the generation and exchange of knowledge on India and its position in the world.
