Neovationism
The IDEA Framework for Equitable, Innovation-Driven Automation
Neovationism is an original economic theory designed to place innovation, equity, creativity-focused education, and strategic automation at the center of sustainable economic growth. While traditional economic systems — capitalism, socialism, and hybrids — have facilitated technological and productivity gains, they do not fully incentivize transformative innovation or ensure equitable distribution of benefits. The IDEA framework — Incentivize Innovation, Distribute Equitably, Educate for Creativity, and Automate Strategically — offers a cohesive model for economies to harness human creativity and automation synergistically, producing inclusive prosperity.

What if every person, no matter where they were born, had the opportunity to live a life free from poverty?
What if underrepresented communities could rise above systemic barriers, stepping boldly into a future of dignity, opportunity, and empowerment?
This vision drives my passion for Development Economics, where I dedicate myself to understanding why inequalities persist and uncovering sustainable, evidence-based solutions that create real opportunity and inclusion. I explore the structural, financial, and behavioral forces shaping inequality and transform them into pathways for empowerment, with the ultimate goal of building a more just, inclusive, and humane economy.
In pursuit of this mission, I conceived and developed Neovationism: The IDEA Framework for Equitable, Innovation-Driven Automation, a novel economic theory designed to maximize innovation, strategically integrate automation, foster creativity, and ensure equitable outcomes. Through Neovationism, I am advancing a structured research program spanning foundational papers, empirical studies, and comparative case analyses across countries of all development levels — establishing a new framework for understanding and shaping the future of economies worldwide.
Alongside my research, I am a multi-published author, creating across diverse literary forms, topics, and languages. Through writing, I explore the human experience, amplify underrepresented perspectives, and inspire reflection and action. Writing, like research, allows me to illuminate possibilities, uncover hidden truths, and leave meaningful impact across cultures.
Together, my work in economics and literature reflects a commitment to curiosity, creativity, innovation, and meaningful change, with the goal of designing systems and ideas that empower individuals and societies to thrive.
