Abstract: In conducting this article we considered that the XXI century is considered the century knowledge economy, because knowledge has become a vital asset for countries, companies and individuals. Therefore, the knowledge economy is a concept that refers to the use of knowledge to produce benefits, ie added value [1]. Thus, the benefit of the exploitation of knowledge (this resource materializes into inventions / innovations on new products / services performed by firms) differentiates the countries regarding growth potential and global competitive position. Thus, we analyzed two global indices with great interest to explain how to obtain competitive advantage and create national prosperity nationally and in terms of business organizations.
