By / Change & innovation, Innovation barriers, Innovation in Europe, Vision & strategy / / 9 minutes of reading

We summarize the results of the European Innovation Scoreboard, (EIS 2023), including the regional analysis of the EU, Regional Innovation Scoreboard, (RIS 2023) and the global comparison with other countries.
The most extensive analysis, which also includes 11 other European countries, shows that Switzerland is Europe’s innovation leader.
At the global level, the EU has reduced the distance with some of the leaders.
The Regional Innovation Scoreboard complements the EIS and, in my opinion, greatly helps to understand the development of innovation.

The objective is to convey the need and urgency of innovation in all organizations and in all areas.
The thesis is that innovation is key to improving the macro and micro economy, and that in times of crisis, the most innovative companies and territories do better.
The existence of barriers to innovation slows down economic and social development in the areas in which we operate.
Accelerated and abrupt changes such as the current crisis caused by Covid-19 have further catalyzed the urgency of innovation and its necessary financing.
For emergency innovation we must accelerate the management of our innovation projects, reviewed and selected on the one hand, and extend the critical mass of innovative projects and companies in our environment.

Results of the European Innovation Scoreboard (EIS) 2016:
Spain is ranked at 20 of the 28 members of the EU in the last index of innovation performance in Europe and walks away, year after year, to reach the European average. Innovation in Spain continues to decline.

If companies in this environment want to innovate, they envisage still more difficulties. If we agree barriers to innovation come from individuals, from the own organization and the environment, in the case of Spain, this environment is not eliminating external barriers but on the contrary, are increasing.
