About the Global Innovation Index

The GII 2024 ranks the innovation performance of 133 economies and takes the pulse of global innovation trends against a background of steady but slow global economic growth, shrinking innovation finance, and sluggish productivity growth.

Since 2007, the GII has been an invaluable reference for countries wanting to develop new innovation and economic policy strategies and a tool for improving innovation metrics.
