Where are innovation indicators and measurement going?

Chapter 23 in Handbook of Innovation Indicators and Measurement, 2023, pp 430-432 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This chapter takes note of the other chapters in the handbook and their different approaches to the measurement of innovation indicators, with implications for policy development, monitoring and evaluation. Some chapters deal with new methods while others work on breadth of existing methods, including measurement of innovation in economic sectors in addition to the business sector. This view of innovation in economic sectors provides a more comprehensive approach to measurement, including measurement of the public sector, the household sector and individuals. While these measurements are important if innovation indicators are developed, there is also consideration of measurement of innovation in informal activity in all economic sectors. The informal activity is particularly important in developing countries. The chapter includes a view on the future and what could be done in the next decade.
