'This book offers a comprehensive guide on developing frugal products for innovators and researchers within the Asia region. With fast-growing low-income markets across developing and developed countries, their distinctive needs for new products require firms and entrepreneurs to make significant adaptations to their innovation practices. This book offers a unique roadmap from ideation to commercialisation, guiding us through the development of new frugal products for these billion people. This is a unique perspective drawing together the key New Product Development Process and frugal innovation research. Two powerful case studies are presented with detailed insights around the successful ideation to commercialisation of frugal products in Asia, helping address two major development challenges – access to clean water and safe cooking methods. A must-read book for academics and practitioners!'— Stephan Buse, Management board member, Center for Frugal Innovation at TUHH; Deputy Director, Institute for Technology and Innovation Management, Hamburg University of Technology, Germany'As the co-founder of FabLab Bandung, which is the first FabLab in West Java, Indonesia, and the second FabLab in Indonesia, I found this book timely and interesting. The book provides a framework of NPD in the frugal innovation context with two case studies from Indonesia. As Indonesia is one of emerging economies with more than 260 million people, frugal innovation can be a powerful approach to solve some of the development challenges for the BOP segment in Indonesia. I believe this book is very useful as it gives us the roadmap to convert ideas to commercialization from the frugal innovation perspective. A must read for practitioners.'— Joseph King Wiharjo, Co-founder, FabLab Bandung, Indonesia
