Global Innovation index ranks countries on an annual basis for their contribution towards successful innovations based on their capacity. Published by Cornell University, INSEAD and WIPO in partnership with other organizations and institutions, it is based on both objective and subjective data derived from several sources such as the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), World Bank and World Economic Forum (WEF). The GII report has been published each year since 2007, becoming a leading benchmark tool for policy makers and business executives who seek insight into the state of innovation around the world, as a tool to measure progress. GII marks indicators for ranking world economies, their innovation capabilities and subsequent results. It provides a broader horizon by marking indicators going beyond the traditional measures such as levels of research and development. The GII has two sub-indices: The Innovation Input Sub-Index and the Innovation Output Sub-Index.
