Dr. Deborah Carr, Director of the Center for Innovation in Social Science and Arts & Sciences Distinguished Professor of Sociology at Boston University, discusses her research titled “Do Social Security Benefit Rules Perpetuate Marital Status and Gender Inequalities?”
Social Security rules favor married people and disadvantage divorced, prematurely widowed, and lifelong single older adults, creating economic gaps that mostly impact women. Using data from a long-term study of White high school graduates, the research found married older adults enjoy higher income and lower poverty rates, while divorced women and those widowed young face the greatest financial risks. Policy reforms like caregiver credits could help reduce these inequalities in late-life economic security.

Exploring Innovation in India: Dr. Rishikesha Krishnan Shares Key Research Insights
Dr. Rishikesha Krishnan, Professor of Strategy and Former Director at the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore, delves into his pioneering research, “Innovation in and from India: The Who, Where, What, and When.”
Most Indian firms innovate within the technological frontier, emphasizing cost reduction and frugal innovation to meet local affordability needs. Process and organizational innovations are more common than product or supply chain innovations. Foreign multinationals remain key patent contributors, largely unaffected by weak IP enforcement. A promising trend is the growth of start-ups driving product and business model innovation. Overall, empirical research on innovation in India remains limited compared to China, signaling scope for further study. From a managerial lens, Indian firms excel in incremental and frugal innovations that create value domestically, while foreign firms lead in patent-driven R&D for global markets. The interaction between these forces is now catalyzing a new wave of innovative start-ups in India.
