  • A comment on Talk: R.A. Mashelkar: Breakthrough designs for ultra-low-cost products

    Nov 1 2010: Dr. R.A.M.'s talk is wonderful! It showcases the world that the Indians are capable of `getting more from less for more'... though asians did not invent anything in the last 1000 years (as john sebastin mentioned) they `innovated' many things. Dr R.A.M. touched upon a few things... the innovation helps to reach millions ... and the innovation makes the invention affordable...!
