Abstract
India's recent growth has been
impressive, with real GDP rising by over eight percent a
year since 2004 -- accompanied by a jump in innovative
activities. Growth has been driven by rapid expansion in
export-oriented, skill-intensive manufacturing and,
especially, skill-intensive services. The book is structured
as follows: Chapter 1 reviews the Indian context and
enabling environment. Chapter 2 analyzes knowledge creation
and commercialization. Chapter 3 discusses knowledge
diffusion and absorption. Chapter 4 encourages inclusive,
pro-poor innovation. Chapter 5 addresses the need for
stronger skills and education for innovation. Chapter 6
examines ways of improving information infrastructure.
Chapter 7 suggests approaches to enhance innovation finance.
