Theme: What is the future of innovation-driven growth?

This year’s GII focuses on the effect of innovation on productivity and wellbeing of society over the coming decades.

The report addresses the following question: Is stagnation and low productivity growth here to stay, or are we about to enter a new era, where new innovation spurts – the Digital Age and the Deep Science Innovation waves – bring about an economic uplift?
