The
Innovation for Development Report
The
relative importance of
various drivers of economic growth and prosperity has evolved over
time, and, for a growing number of countries, innovation in its many
dimensions is emerging as a leading factor. The Innovation for Development Report
provides a comprehensive look at the role of innovation in enhancing
the development process. The Report
is divided into three thematic parts (see contents here).pdf The first features the
Innovation
Capacity Index, a methodological tool that examines a broad array of
factors, policies, and institutions that have a bearing on
strengthening innovation in a large number of countries. The second
part of the Report contains
several papers from leading experts addressing different dimensions of
innovation. Among the questions addressed: What has been the impact on
countries’ economic growth of increasing access to information and
communication technologies? Why is our current patent system so
inefficient and how is it undermining innovation? How can innovation be
more inclusive and stimulate more sustainable and equitable patterns of
economic growth? The third part of the Report presents innovation profiles
for 68 of the larger economies, which account for the lion’s share of
world output.
