Promoting Innovation and Inclusion for a Prosperous Asia: Proceedings of the ADB-Asian Think Tank Development Forum 2014
Asian Development Bank | August 2015
Abstract
Partnering with the Korea Development Institute, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) held the forum on
20–21 November 2014 at Seoul, Republic of Korea. The forum featured research papers that tackled issues on
globalization and regional integration, innovation, middle-income trap, inclusive growth and social protection,
and poverty and inequality. This publication documents the dynamic exchange of ideas and information during
the 2-day event.
The ADB-Asian Think Tank Development Forum is an annual knowledge sharing event under the ADB-Asian
Think Tank Network (ATTN), established by ADB and the Asian think tanks in 2013. The major objective of
the network is to promote knowledge sharing and capacity building of the think tanks, particularly those which
are involved in supporting governments in formulating and implementing medium- or long-term development
plans and in responding to emerging issues. For more information about ATTN, please visit its website:
