About Us
We are individuals, mostly early career innovation researchers, who met and befriended at various GlobeLics events and bound by its inclusive and egalitarian spirit. During the covid induced lockdown we got together to organise a lecture series on theoretical foundations of innovation systems mainly for the benefit of students and early career researchers from developing countries. The lecture series is named Christopher Freeman Centenary lecture Series as it began in the birth cenetenary year (2021-22) of the great innovation scholar.
