Chintan on Freedom, Rules and Wealth Creation
It is our pleasure to invite you to CCS Chintan. We are hosting Atanu Dey on 2 December 2014 to discuss freedom, rules and wealth creation.
Atanu is an economist with a background in development. He did his doctoral work at the University of California at Berkeley. Prior to going back to school for his PhD, he worked at Hewlett Packard in the Silicon Valley in their computer systems division. While he enjoyed working for HP, he realised that he was more interested in understanding why India was poor and he quit to travel India, US and Europe. His travels gave him the insight that economics informs the question of poverty better than any other discipline.
We look forward to your presence at the discussion on Tuesday. Please RSVP to Manasi Bose (manasi@ccs.in | +91 98107 72964). Due to space limitations, this is an invitation-only event.
