AMONG THE TOP, QUALITY MATTERSThe group of top 25 performers, all high-income, remains largely unchanged from past editions
The US and the UK stay ahead of the pack in terms of innovation quality
This is the first year Czech Republic (24th) joins the Top 25 and Ireland is back in the Top 10 (8th)
16
INSTITUTIONS MATTER
Institutions have become
the most visible differentiator, as new ideas are produced
and developed
across regions and income
groups
17
BUSINESS SOPHISTICATION
Low-income economies that have
made efforts on business
sophistication have been able to do
well, sometimes overtaking some middle-income
economies
18
National innovation policy plans are essential
Management and leadership bodies facilitate policy implementation
Coordination with other policy strategies is key (IP, education, skills, foreign investment, trade)
Understand sector linkages
Focus on existing domestic innovation capabilities
Effective policy implementation to improve innovation metrics
LESSONS ON INNOVATION POLICIES
IMPROVE• Framework conditions
for innovation
RENOVATE• Interest in demand-side
measures
CREATE
• A culture of innovation
ALIGN• Innovation policies and institutions to reflect and leverage local realities
“Innovation holds far-reaching promise for spurring economic growth in countries at all stages of development. However, realizing this promise is not automatic.
Each nation must find the right mix of policies to mobilize the innate innovative and creative potential in their economies.”
