Abstract: Economic Complexity is a data driven empirical approach developed to inform the study of territorial development with quantitative metrics. Techniques inspired by complex systems analysis and network theory allow measuring the intangible capabilities necessary for a country or region to be competitive, both in overall terms and in specific markets. We exemplarily analyse the case of Slovakia's industrial and innovation competitiveness by looking at the overall potential of the country and focusing on its Electronics sector.
