Emerging and Developing

Why are developing countries that were until recently associated with cheap labor now becoming leaders in innovation?

Driven by a mixture of ambition and fear—ambition to bestride the world stage and fear of even cheaper competitors in, say, Vietnam or Cambodia—they are relentlessly climbing up the value chain.”
