   Established in 2011 in collaboration with Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Skoltech is a unique experiment in both Russia and the world. For example, in the area of education, we are boldly breaking with traditional teaching methods and are seeking to cultivate digital natives by teaching generation Z in their language and style. It hasn’t always been easy to instill a new mindset towards education, but we believe it is where the future lies. By blazing a new trail, we hope to create a path that other universities in Russia and elsewhere will be able to follow.

+ Road transportation policies can drive innovation in more environmentally sustainable vehicle and fuel technologies but may have unintended consequences. To assess their impacts on technology innovation, greenhouse gas emissions, air pollution, and land use, we systematically review and analyze evidence on the outcomes of 14 road transportation policy instruments, including fuel economy and low-carbon fuel standards, biofuel and zero-emission vehicle mandates, and fuel and vehicle taxes.

But, in principle, innovative activity could shift in ways that either increase or decrease the climatic resilience of economic production. A comprehensive map is missing of the interactions between climate change, production and innovation.

Across many consumer categories— be it beauty or beverages or food —the great growth stories increasingly seem to belong to small, nimble players.

As the pursuit of innovation has inspired technologists and capitalists, it has also provoked critics who suspect that the peddlers of innovation radically overvalue innovation. What happens after innovation, they argue, is more important. Maintenance and repair, the building of infrastructures, the mundane labour that goes into sustaining functioning and efficient infrastructures, simply has more impact on people’s daily lives than the vast majority of technological innovations.
