I am actually writing my dissertation on commercialization of grassroots innovations. I was wondering if you could spare a few minutes of your time to answer a few questions of mine?
e.g. which technologies are you interested in exactly (is the bbc programme new? I've tried looking for it)?

in what sort of business are you engaged?

where would you like to market these products? only India or internationally?

If you could reply to my email, I would be forever grateful.

There are plenty of Innovations happening all around. Vendors selling novel items in the Mumbai Suburban Trains which is another best place to spot such grass root innovations. These items are available at rock bottom prices and provide a greater value in terms of function in terms of getting the job done.

And Anil Gupta is one such person.

This is what most South East Asian countries faces every time innovation isn't well placed in its indigenous locals. Rarely its understood as a premise that innovation at a primitive level is important for the locals especially the lower income groups.
