Welcome to Lecture No. 7 – February 19
“DIFFERENT APPROACHES TO NATIONAL SYSTEMS OF INNOVATION“
Christopher Freeman is the founding father of modern Innovation Studies. His influence on the discipline (and also the scholars involved), has been phenomenal. This online lecture series is a tribute to Freeman, in his birth centenary year. The target audience is budding researchers, grad-students and inter-disciplinarians who aspire to use the analytical frame of Innovation Systems (IS) in their research but lack a thorough grounding in the theory. The lecture series is designed to serve as a ‘text book’, giving them an opportunity to listen to and network with scholars already working in the domain. We hope this would embolden grad-students, especially from Global South, where adequate training facility in ‘IS’ is still scanty. The online lecture series starts on 7-January and ends on 1-April, 2021.
