  • Hello and welcome to The Intelligence from The Economist.

  • I'm Rosie Bloor.

  • And I'm Jason Palmer.

  • Every weekday, we provide a fresh perspective on the events shaping your world.

  • India's tech workforce is vast and members of its diaspora lead some of the world's biggest technology firms.

  • So why do Indian companies lack innovation and its universities publish little in the way of world-class research?

  • Our correspondent investigates.

  • And 50 years ago today, a cinematic institution was released,

  • and with it, a two-note melody of dread.

  • But half a century later, Jaws might not be the film you remember,

  • and the hero not who you once thought.

  • First up, though.

  • For days,

  • the top of the news agenda had been that President Donald Trump was mulling the idea of joining Israel in bombing Iran's nuclear sites.

  • Would he?

  • Wouldn't he?

  • It seems like that's where he likes the news cycle to sit.

  • I mean, you don't know that I'm going to even do it.

  • You don't know.

  • I may do it.
