The Atlas of Ideas
Next places, next people, next science
The Atlas of Ideas was a three year programme at Demos, which explored changes in the global geography of science and innovation. Between 2005 and 2008, it published studies of China, India, South Korea and Brazil.
Innovative China

I've recently returned from Beijing, where I spoke at the launch of the OECD's review of China's innovation system. Most of the movers and shakers in Chinese S&T policy were present, and there was some lively debate about the balance between 'indigenous innovation' and the need for more international collaboration.
I've written a comment piece in today's China Daily which summarises what I said at the OECD event, building on the arguments in our Atlas of Ideas report. The National Science Foundation of China and the British Embassy in Beijing have also produced a Chinese translation of the Atlas reports, which we released at the OECD event.
I then travelled south to Guangzhou for a separate event with the Guangzhou Association of Science and Technology. This picked up a bit of local media interest. I spoke alongside Adrian Ely from the STEPS Centre at Sussex University, who has blogged the event here.
