Atlas of Ideas 2.0
Next places, next people, next science
The Atlas of Ideas is mapping changes in the global geography of science and innovation - pinpointing where innovation is coming from and where it is heading.
So far our work has focused on China, India and South Korea, but Phase 2.0 sees Demos extend this work to include an ambitious study of science in the Islamic world; a focus on the innovation potential of Brazil; a closer look at 'knowledge nomads'; and the prospects for a low-carbon China.

Mile high blogging
at 12:00am on Sunday, 8th May 2005This is a first - for me at least - I'm posting this from 35,000 feet above Afghanistan. I'm currently on a Lufthansa flight and thanks to the new Boeing Skynet service, am savouring the joys of full broadband access (even the Demos VPN works!).
Advert over. My real reason for posting is to say I'll be away from the office for the rest of May, carrying out some scoping research for our Atlas of Ideas project, which is exploring trends in science and innovation in China, India and South Korea.
I'm starting out in Delhi, then heading on to Bangalore, Beijing and Shanghai, talking as I go to a fascinating mix of scientists, policymakers and corporates about 'the new geography of science'. More soon...
