The Fault in our Patents: How India can Innovate (and Grow) Better.
In the land of ‘Jugaad’, where everyone is able to find a frugal fix to any problem, innovation is still dismal. Innovation in India is dismal not because of the lack of grey matter, but because India is systemically failing its inventors – firstly, through an education system that focuses on rote-learning rather than critical thinking, and secondly, through a broken system of filing patents. This article presents a deeper view of the latter and suggests tried-and-tested methods to improve upon it.
