Reponsible for contributing to the the group‟s research program and
research strategy. Aligning with product divisions or other customers
of research on their requirements. Identifying opportunities for
business venturing and new business development.
Motivation to attend the course and expected outcome:
Innovation in Emerging Markets for a corporation is more challenging because I believe it requires the coming
together of tech-rich solutions at an affordable price backed by a good business model. And affordability and
business model have a different meaning in an emerging market like India. In this course, I would like to understand
how open innovation (from a business innovation point of view as well) has been used and can be leveraged for
solutions for the emerging markets.
