I think what must be realised is that we are in the process of understanding innovation and how to promote it at a national level. The report essentially brings together data and ideas of what nations are doing right to improve innovation in their context, which should provide lessons for everyone.Suleman Alihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18171832789491858471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7923005810906159036.post-27072058110256086662013-09-01T21:35:41.046+01:002013-09-01T21:35:41.046+01:00Great points, Neil!

A policy maker in Israel may be concerned by their relative ranking and use the report to ascertain the specific "weak" spot supposedly measured by the report--which she may ultimately discount. The report also provides some decent information for business development and perhaps investment. Generally, I think, the information collected and digested is helpful, particularly if you have an interest in building innovation capabilities.

For instance, what do we do with the fact that Israel probably has more listed companies on NASDAQ as a function of the size of the country? Might not such a data point be just as relevant as those examined in the study?Neilnoreply@blogger.com
