2023 Global Top Technology Cluster Revealed | Read it all

The global innovation landscape has changed in the post-pandemic era, with mixed performance in innovation investment amid economic recovery and geopolitical turmoil. The number of scientific publications, R&D, venture capital deals, and patents continues to increase, but at a slower rate than the extraordinary growth seen in 2021. The largest R&D spenders grew by about 7.4% in 2022, up from 15% in 2021. There has been a real increase in global government R&D budgets, with significant increases in government R&D budgets in Germany, South Korea and Japan, making up for cuts in R&D budgets in 2022 by other top R&D spending governments, such as the United States. The cost of batteries is falling due to price fluctuations of related raw materials. Indicators of technological progress in information technology, health and energy continue to make progress, and the digital age and wave of deep scientific innovation are booming. Supercomputers are becoming faster and more energy efficient, and the cost of genome sequencing and low-emission energy technologies such as wind and solar is falling. But the socio-economic impact of innovation remains weak.
