Relation between Competitiveness and Technological Infrastructure
• Competitiveness analyses how countries or enterprises manage the totality of their competencies to achieve long-term value creation
• The innovative capacity of a country or region is heavily rooted in areas such as the intensity of scientists and engineers in the workforce, the degree of protection of intellectual property, and the depth of clusters
• The Scientific and Technological Infrastructure sub-factors provide a proxy for S&T Innovation.
• However, the S&T sub-factors are not able to capture all the innovative and technological aspects affecting competitiveness
