Professor of Marketing
Jawaharlal Nehru Professor of Indian Business & Enterprise

Director of the Centre for India & Global Business (CIGB)
Fellow of Clare College
BTech (IIT Delhi), PhD (University of Southern California)
My research interests are in innovation, marketing, international business, strategy, policy and development. I particularly focus on frugal innovation in large and small firms in developed and emerging economies. I am also interested in frugal innovation in the public sector and how governments should cultivate and regulate new technologies in the economy.
I’m a member of the Marketing subject group at Cambridge Judge Business School, which focuses on strategy, modelling, and consumer behaviour.
Small teams in large and startup organisations can now innovate to solve the wicked problems of our time such as climate change and inequality.
Research interests
Specific interests include: cross-national issues concerning the antecedents and consequences of radical innovation in high-technology contexts such as banking, pharmaceuticals and biotechnology; the role of firm culture in driving innovation in firms across nations; how multinational firms organise their innovation activities worldwide; the forces that drive R&D location decisions and the factors that influence the performance implications of these decisions; the internationalisation of firms from emerging markets; and innovation in emerging markets.
