We are committed to helping our customer in the region to accelerate the pace of innovation by unlocking the full value of their intellectual property.”

KRS Jamwal, Executive Director, Tata Industries, said: “The optimistic scenario materializing at the pace we want is going to require three key actors to push this forward in unison – governments, universities, and corporates. And all these three will have to focus on game changing R&D innovation, rather than incrementalism or re-purpose.”

The criteria used to select the top innovators in South and Southeast Asia closely mirrors that of the annual the Top 100 Global Innovators™ which identifies organizations at the pinnacle of the global innovation landscape.
