      Where Are India’s Innovative Companies, Products and Solutions?
      What is so interesting about this article to me are the comments. And I suspect mark (correct me if I'm wrong) is attempting to motivate us smart Indians into solving Indians woes through innovation. As someone had put it "blamestorming&qu... - so much “ink” used for congratulating or correcting mark.

      Raised entirely in the US (over 40 years), I've just started working closely with some really talented and clever group in India. I had a lot of expectations but one I was not prepared was the aversion from doing it differently. Like American investors – a school of fish. Enough said.

      My idea …

      Hey you new billionaires, how about backing an organization whose agenda is to combat the top ten social, economical and environmental problems that are suffocating India.

      Fund only the vetting, assessment and marketing of ideas. Then throw the ideas into the public domain (dare I say open) for someone else to implement. At some point this meat grinder would gain some traction and provide the genesis of a new way of positioning problems. A 10year plan before shutting it down. (Details to follow in a white paper or global summit)

      With the execution in somebody else’s hands with an alternate motivation to implement. Maybe, just maybe this could get India out of the “British raj stupor” (service only nation) and start having Indians start doing for India what they have done for other nations. (my apologies for the editorial rant)
