This show takes a look at the boom in digital start-ups in Asia and how this might evolve. What do newly developed, or still underdeveloped, environments offer as benefits and hindrances for such endeavours and what sort of interaction is there with the older established western economies? With the very different environments of India and Kazakhstan as a backdrop for discussion, this program explores both the potential and the prerequisites for such developments.



about “me and my shadows – innovating in emerging economies” 

In mature western economies the mention of innovation brings to mind corporate R&D labs or spin-outs from academic research environments. In emerging markets the foundations for this kind of innovation are often lacking or incomplete. So to nurture innovation what are the essential foundations you need to build and what might you do differently because you must or because you can? The discussion in this show covers ideas and phenomena from frugal innovation to ‘silicon bridges’. There is no magic formula, for sure, but there is enormous space for new approaches and perspectives, and no lack of inspiration.
