Centre for Policy and Technology (CPT)
Policy research, advisory and technology-enabled solutions for governments and institutions working on complex public problems.
Policy problems increasingly cross the boundaries of governance, economics and technology.
The Centre brings together SPJIMR faculty working across public policy, economics, technology and governance. Our approach combines rigorous analysis with practical problem-solving: policy design, programme evaluation, public systems and technology-enabled interventions.
