Abstract

This chapter has a number of parts. It introduces the novel idea of a Knowledge Footprint designed to measure the extent and magnitude of a nation’s embrace of a knowledge economy. It encompasses both domestic and international elements of knowledge flows. The chapter measures India’s Knowledge Footprint against other countries, and finds that out of 15 countries India is ranked a disappointing fourteenth. The chapter then delves into key focus areas of exports to assess India’s performance on this critical dimension of internationalisation. India is making some tentative inroads into becoming a knowledge intensive exporter. The chapter then turns to another ‘E', that of entrepreneurship and finds that despite the optimism surrounding India’s entrepreneurship, there are a number of missing elements in the overall ecosystem. The chapter also considers environment as an important element associated with the ‘E' framework. A number of strategies are outlined in this chapter.
