内容简介：
Since 2009 the world economic structure has changed significantly. These changes in the economic realities are also reflected in the innovation potential of the economies. The Innovation Indicator 2011 is a benchmarking study of 26 economies, which are evaluated by summarizing the most important single indices in an overall statistical parameter. The Innovation Indicator uses a composite of a selected set of indicators to describe and analyze the performance of national economies in terms of innovation activities. In the Innovation Indicator 2011 Germany occupies a good fourth place. With an indicator rating of 57 it was overtaken only by Switzerland, which was always very good (rating 76), Sweden (61) and the new arrival in the leading group which was analyzed for the first time, Singapore (63). China ranks 21st with an indicator value of 18. In addition, Evidence suggests that economic interconnections among neighboring countries – if the economic, technological and political conditions fit – can develop faster and more easily due to cultural and geographical proximity than with far distant partners.
