  • The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) publishes the annual Global Innovation Index (GII), which tracks more than 80 indicators to evaluate and rank ongoing innovation among more than 130 of the world’s most developed economies.
  • The GII groups indicators into seven categories:
  • Institutions
  • Human Capital and Research
  • Infrastructure
  • Market Sophistication
  • Business Sophistication
  • Knowledge and Technology Outputs
  • Creative Outputs
  • All GII values other than the total score are rankings from 1 (best) to 132.
  • The 2024 GII Report excludes Guinea but added Myanmar and Barbados
  • The Bloomberg Innovation Index (BII) is a different, but similar index published by the Bloomberg media company. Categories in the BII include R&D Intensity, Manufacturing Value-Added, Productivity, High-Tech Density, Tertiary Efficiency, Researcher Concentration, and Patent Activity.
