| Soumitra Dutta suggests two prompts for innovation: technological push, where new technologies create whole new industries, and market pull, where existing technology is cleverly combined to create viable market solutions. In India today, there are many innovative market pull solutions. Dutta argues that in order to maintain ground on a global stage, India should increase investment in original research, development, and production of new technologies. |

| Wilfried Aulbur poses that automotive engineering will need to cope with five main challenges over the next years: higher regional complexity; higher product complexity; higher technology complexity; and a "war for talent". Among other changes, businesses will need to adapt from having a global presence to being globally integrated. Finally, highly effective operating models must be designed to manage the transformation into a more agile, flexible, and efficient engineering organization. |
