* Innovation Capacity Rank:

Defined as "the degree to which a nation offers a favorable environment at the world technology frontier." The rankings are derived from the following metrics: U.S patents per million people; proportion of scientists and engineers; innovation policy; number and size of technology hot spots and other institutions; GDP per capita; business competitiveness; sophistication of marketing; and correspondence between pay and productivity. (Technology Review, May 2004)
