UCL Academic Lecture: Capitalism, Technology and Innovation by Carlota Perez

The impact of technology on employment and that of environmental goals on growth are at the top of the political agenda. This session will look at these issues and how innovation can be nurtured by mission-oriented action on the part of both state and business. The lecture will examine how society has assimilated and shaped equivalent challenges in previous technological revolutions, and examine the potential directions that are being explored today.
