Measurement of Innovative Activity
In order to manage any activity you first need to be able to measure it. This research theme provides insights into the various measures of innovative activity and stimulates further research questions about the drivers of this activity.
Questions:
- How does Australia's innovative capacity compare with that of its major industrial competitors, and is it improving or declining over time?
- How do we measure the contribution of intellectual capital to economic productivity and social well-being?
- Who are Australia's leading innovative companies?
