We work on a wide range of studies investigating how intellectual property (IP) interacts with economic development. These studies aim to narrow the knowledge gap decision-makers face when adopting IP policies aimed at supporting broader development objectives. Collection of empirical studies investigating the link between IP, innovation and economic development.
This series of scholarly research is published in collaboration with Cambridge University Press. Each book in the series examines a major aspect of the interface between IP, innovation and economic development.
Conducting empirical economic analysis based on intellectual property (IP) filings can be challenging. This series of short thematic guidelines demystifies the process, promoting standardized research methods and raising awareness of the importance of quality data collection and analysis in the field of IP.

It reveals the most innovative economies in the world, ranking the innovation performance of around 132 economies while highlighting innovation strengths and weaknesses.
The Global Innovation Index (GII) ranks world economies according to their innovation capabilities. Consisting of roughly 80 indicators, grouped into innovation inputs and outputs, the GII aims to capture the multi-dimensional facets of innovation.
Each month, we take a deep dive into one determinant of innovation that constitutes the Global Innovation Index (GII), often together with the GII data collaborators. In this blog series, we unveil unique Innovation Insights, untangling the complexities, and driving forces of the most up-and-coming innovation nations.
