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.
