INTERNATIONAL INNOVATION SUMMIT: Dr.Pradeep Wagh talking with Dr.Sam Pitroda.

It was an awesome event. MR. Sam Pitroda was inspiring and the sincere intent of speakers to bring 'development' to the masses in India was noticeable. The refrain of Corporates that when they expand, they also develop small enterprises in their supply chain and so bring prosperity to a larger section of the society ,also found place..

Most importantly, the role of INNOVATION in a growing economy was underlined.
The known adages:
NECCESSITY is the mother of INNOVATION.

Was shored up with:INNOVATION through INSPIRATION
INNOVATION through ASPIRATION. This one has the classic example of President JOHN F. KENNEDY expressing a national aspiration to set MAN on the moon in a decade and then all scientific innovations aligned to this.

But the simplest was INNOVATION THROUGH CONNECTION OF EARLIER BREAKTHROUGH INNOVATIONS.
A tongue in cheek example was that boxes were in use for hundreds of years for travel,
and WHEEL was invented few thousand years back, but baggage with wheels as a combination of the two has come only a couple of decades ago.
