FUTURE OF INNOVATION DEPENDS ON TRANSFORMING IDEAS INTO ACTIONS

The 2012 GII rankings prove that strong economic performance goes hand-in-hand with strong innovative cultures within countries, economies and regions. " Innovative inputs such as investment in education and talent drive innovation," Per-Ola Karlsson, Senior Partner and Managing Director,   Europe, at Booz & Company told delegates attending the GII launch today in Geneva.





"New linkages between stakeholders are what turn ideas into successful outputs.," he said. "You cannot measure innovation simply on a quantitative basis such as number of patents issued. You have to take into account qualitative things such as strategy and other ways of nurturing innovation."

Booz & Company are a knowledge partner of the GII 2012, along with the Confederation of Indian Industry and Alcatel-Lucent.
