Conclusions and key messages

AMONG THE TOP, QUALITY MATTERS
 The 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)
15
INSTITUTIONS MATTER
Institutions have become
the most visible
differentiator, as new
ideas are produced
and developed across
regions and income
groups
16
BUSINESS SOPHISTICATION
Low-income economies that
have made efforts on
business sophistication
have been able to do well,
sometimes overtaking some
middle-income economies

Effective Innovation Policies for Development
“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.”
