In recent years, the Indian and German governments have emphasised innovation as a key area of cooperation, with Higher Education Institutions in both countries central to research, innovation and transfer. The Policy Talk "Innovation & Indo-German Academic Exchange" focuses on the potential of Indian-German academic cooperation in innovation; best practices – including the connection between the Indian start-up sector and academia; how innovation exchange can be fostered; and what political actors on both sides can do to support this initiative.
The event is organised by the Centre for International Academic Cooperation (KIWi) of the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and the Falling Walls Foundation.
