India redefined, reimagined, reignited: A Perspective on Grassroots, Youthful Creativity and
Innovation
Minds on the margin are not marginal minds
anil gupta, IIMA, sristi.org Honey Bee Network and NIF
Honey Bee Network founded in 1987-1988 A nameless, faceless innovator or traditional knowledge holder comes into contact with the Network and gets an identity, voice, visibility and viability of its sustainable vision .
Intellectual capital
Ethical Capital ( internal regulations)
Social capital Trust, reciprocity and third party sanctions
External regulation
Intellectual property ( that part of ic from the
commercial applications of which, one can exclude others for a given
period of time)
Natural capital ( commoditization of
resources, stored, sold, exchanged,
controlled) Source: Gupta, 2001
Five tensions: a) Autonomy and agency b) Accuracy versus affordability c) Blue print versus autopoiesis (blended, bundled and
bridged innovations) d) Institution led -user adopted to user-created or co-
created and corporate adopted-reverse innovation e) Symmetrical versus asymmetrical open innovation
models
Long tail of innovation (only a few innovations achieve scale, a large number sell a few
pieces or in a few communities)
Long nose of innovation: Take long time to come into market
Room for maneuver
Transformation is possible : Story of five transformations
a) New Chemistry of sustainability equation: circular economy: b) From market led to market disruption: new forms of alliances: TATA agrico and a small innovator, BUHLER, ST Microelectronics, TATA Steel, c) Frugal, friendly, flexible and futuristic heuristics d) New models of learning from below: inverted model of innovation-children invent, engg fabricate, companies commercialise e) New models of financing and co-creation – techpedia.in, empathetic innovations
Dimensions of Inclusion
– Spaces – Sectors – Seasons: stable to fluctuating – Social segments – Skills and knowledge
Inclusive Innovation
Extreme affordability
• Less material

Innovation: at least one of the three dimensions should be New
Frugality Imperatives Material: frugality in quantity, replacement, maintenance, waste recycling Method: distributed, concentrated, iterative versus blue print, self-correcting, local repaired or repaired from outside, or blended Application: low end, high end, diversified or specialized locally modifieable or only experts can fix or make, robust versus sophisticated application, makeshift or permanent,
Frugality is flexible
Frugality is friendly
Frugality is extremely affordable
• Value chain redesign,
• reciprocal open innovation platform
Circular Economy
Learning platforms from concrete to abstract
1) Artefactual - replication of similar design 2) Analogic - metaphor to inspire 3) Heuristic - models of thinking 4) Gestalt - configurational of factors

Learning at four levels:
Higher the interlinkage, greater
the depth, diversity AND development

Low Cost Wind mill Mehtar Hussain and Mushtaq Ahmad, Assam Over 35 units installed in salt farming regions of Gujarat to improve livelihood of poor salt farmers
New heuris9cs: Maximizing output per unit of 9me and smoothening the flow are not always sustainable
Innova&on by Mehtar Husain and Mushtaq Ahmed from Assam to Gujarat
Just 70 Euro
Stronger, durable version, 900 euro, saves diesel worth 700 euro in one season of salt making
Heuristic level Uniform flow versus flow in spurts
Is maximisation of output always good?

GESTALT level
The President of India honours grassroots innovators, launches National Innovation Clubs and hosts an innovation exhibition at the President’s house; NIF becomes an Institute of Department of Science and Technology
Initiative to Institutionalisation
The former President awards children innovators every year at the IGNITE Award function by NIF at IIMA Initiative to Institutionalisation
National Innovation Clubs • Search: Celebrating the decade of
innovation by scouting and mapping the creativity and innovations in the hinterland
• Spread: Disseminating/Cross-pollinating innovations across spaces, social segments and sectors
• Sense or Benchmark: Identifying the roots of persistent problems and the mindsets that trigger their continued tolerance in society to solve problems
• Celebrate: Recognising achievers in different social spheres

Khot College : Padmabhushan Vasantraodada Patil Institute of technology, Budhgaon, Sangli It is a 50 lit capacity, refrigerator which is powered by a rear wheel of bicycle. To achieve the required rpm of compressor we provide a larger pulley of dia 20 inch on rear wheel shaft through which pulley we run the compressor and achieved the required output. Steady paddling of bicycle at 14 km/hr. for 30 minutes at an ambient temperature of 35 C, brings down the temperature in box to 8 C.

GOLDEN TRIANGLE for rewarding CREATIVITY
Leadership is to take note of ex ante and ex post transaction costs and deal with them upfront, If not, these are transferred to the weaker partner

Sugarcane bud chipper Innovator: Mr. Roshan Lal Vishwakarma, Narsinghpur, Madhya Pradesh
Marine Inboard diesel engine and Z Drive Innovator: B. Mohanlal, Aleppey, Kerala
Manually tillable Z-drive system Reversible reduction gearbox
To go along with gear box for diesel engine, manually operated Z drive system is developed, which is manually tiltable and can be locked at 90 degrees while landing. It also has reduced the loss of power through horizontal shaft power transmission and result in smooth drive and better maneuverability.
The diesel engine directly couples with two reduction gears through flange coupling with engine flywheel. The innovativeness lies in the application of helical gears with inner spline cut with dual sided jaw and dog clutch. This provides the smooth running and better power transmission for the marine diesel engine.
NIF signed MoU with Matsyafed
Matsyafed gave an order of 100 machine sets – order value of about INR 68 Lakh.

Field Trial Results
• Results indicate that the herbal preparation significantly reduced the grasshopper and larval population (H. armigera and Earias vittella ) in Okra plants. • Fruit damage in Okra was also controlled by NIF-BKS, which was at par with Chlorpyriphos @ 0.05%. • Increase of 14 to 69% in number of branches was recorded as compared to control. • Increase of 8 to 44% in the yield was recorded, maximum @ 40ml/L.
Botanicals for Growth Promotion and Insect Pest Control in Agricultural Crops
Innovator: Jokhu Shah
• NIF-JS (6ml) significantly reduced population of H.armigera as compared to untreated control.
• A reduction of 52% in mealy bug was recorded as compared to untreated control. • Reduction in fruit damage was recorded with NIF-JS @ 7.5ml/L, followed by 10ml/L dose which was better than the positive control. • Formulation also increased plant height @ 6 ml/L .
• NIF-JS showed moderate larvicidal effect against Spodoptera litura and Helicoverpa armigera larvae under controlled conditions.
Field Trial Results
Herbal preparation for controlling borers in vegetable crops
Innovator: Kodarji Kaluji Pagi
• The trail was conducted on Okra in field conditions and data of plant hoppers, larval (H.armigera and Earias vittella) population and fruit damage was recorded. • After 48 hours of spray there was significant reduction in the larval population. • Larval population/plant was 2.25 in untreated and 0.0 in NIF-KKP (25 ml/L) and Chlorpyriphos treated plants. • The herbal preparation also caused reduction in fruit damage/plant as compared to untreated control.

Emerging Models of Innovation
a) Building upon what disadvantaged people are rich in: inability to live with problems unsolved – overcoming inertia
b) Empathetic innovation: samvedana se srijansheelta, kho kho model of innovation (innovation relay)
c) Going beyond long tail, long nose of innovation to turbulent innovation
d) Inverted model of innovations: children invent, engineers fabricate, and companies commercialize
e) Pooling of distributed ideas for innovation and experimentation : uncommon from common
f) distributed mind management: www.techpedia.in - transcending the limits of frugality
g) Moving blackboards: learning from unexpected quarters
Emerging Models of Innovation
Should accuracy be traded off with affordability? Should design overtake durability Should desires be preferred over deserving
