World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) published 2023 Global Innovation Index
In the 2023 Global Innovation Index (GII) published by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), Singapore has climbed two positions to secure the 5th spot globally and reclaim its position as the leading innovator in Asia, a title it lost to South Korea in the previous two years.
The 2023 edition of the Global Innovation Index (GII) assesses global innovation trends against the backdrop of an uncertain economic environment. This report ranks 132 economies based on their innovation performance and identifies the top 100 science and technology innovation clusters.
For the 13th consecutive year, Switzerland has secured its position as the most innovative economy in 2023. Sweden has surpassed the United States, claiming the second spot, with the United States, the United Kingdom, and Singapore following closely in the rankings. Notably, Singapore has entered the top five and leads among economies in the South East Asia, East Asia, and Oceania (SEAO) region.
S&T clusters, often referred to as “Science and Technology hubs,” represent areas with the highest density of inventors and scientific authors globally. In 2023, the leading Science and Technology innovation clusters include Tokyo–Yokohama, Shenzhen–Hong Kong–Guangzhou, Seoul, Beijing, and Shanghai-Suzhou.
China has achieved a significant milestone by surpassing the United States in having the largest number of clusters in the world. This report provides valuable insights into each economy’s innovation ecosystem, highlighting strengths and weaknesses. It also offers an interactive visualization tool for further exploration and comparison between economies.
The GII evaluates countries based on innovation performance, utilizing 80 indicators such as political environment, education, infrastructure, and knowledge creation to assess innovation inputs and outputs.
