This research, along with her personal experience in leveraging the complementary skill sets of transnational teams, and meetings with CEOs of multinational corporations as well as grassroots entrepreneurs heralding bottom-up, small scale innovation gave her a holistic, on-the-ground look at the methods and mindset of innovation employed in emerging markets, and its relevance in a global context.
