Key Findings

•Small and mid-sized economies can rank very highly on innovation outputs, not just large economies.
•Innovation outputs vary widely across regions, reflecting differences in R&D systems, industry structure, and creative sectors.
•Because it focuses on outputs, the metric can highlight economies that ‘punch above their weight’ relative to inputs.

About This Statistic

The Global Innovation Index (GII) publishes a country-by-country “Innovation Output Sub-Index” score, capturing tangible results of innovation such as knowledge & technology outputs (e.g., patents, high-tech production, knowledge diffusion) and creative outputs (e.g., intangible assets, creative goods & services, online creativity).

Because it focuses on outputs rather than inputs, this metric is a useful way to compare how effectively different economies translate education, R&D, investment, and institutions into measurable innovation results. Scores are published annually for a large set of economies, enabling global comparison and year-to-year tracking.
