Reflections on the Chinese and Indian Innovation Ecosystem
China and India have evolved their national innovation systems dramatically in the past decade. China leads the pack of upper middle-income countries—more than contesting historical U.S.-supremacy in several fields—while India leads the ensemble of lower middle-income countries. This lecture will offer a preliminary exploration of some similarities but primarily the differences in the ways in which these two societies have approached the pre-meditated task of upgrading their respective national innovation infrastructures.
The China Center’s annual Bob and Kim Griffin Building U.S.- China Bridges Lecture features high-profile speakers who are experts in a wide range of timely and critical China-related topics, from economics and business to culture and politics.
