Summary – Trickle Up Innovation
"The dominant logic holds that innovation comes from the U.S., goes to Europe and Japan, then gravitates to poor countries" says C.K. Prahalad, a strategy professor at the University of Michigan's Ross School of Business and author of The Fortune at the Bottom of the Pyramid: Eradicating Poverty Through Profits. "But now we're starting to see a reversal of that flow." CK Prahalad (1941- April 2010)
