How can we get a list of Innovation IndicatorsHow can we get a list of Innovation Indicators?
For 2009 these are listed in the Innovation Cities Analysis Report 2009. Along with a discussion of the basis of the indicators, there are bibliographic and other sources for further research & reading on each indicator. Purchase the Innovation Cities Analysis (ICA) Report 2009 here.
Is it possible to customise Indicators to our needs?
Not all cities & regions are the same. Also, at a city, nation or trade-bloc level, in the provision of advisory services; specific targeted Innovation Indicators can be added or subtracted in real-time to create an entirely custom measure of innovation. An example of this may be relative comparison in viticultural or fishing innovation in Innovation Regions, where these industries are a dominant aspect of local GDP. To enquire about Advisory or custom Innovation Indicators. > Contact 2thinknow
Where can I find out how a specific city scores on these indicators?
For each city Single City Data [SCD] Sets are available in Microsoft Excel from 2thinknow. These score the 162 indicators for an individual city - as currently held by 2thinknow.

We have a suggestion for a better indicator! How do we make it?
First of all purchase the ICA Report. Review it. Then, feel free to email us your thoughts. Any contributions are subject to a review process, and we will be in touch. Even if we don't accept a Innovation Indicator immediately at the global level, we may test apply it to cities at a national level, before ultimate adoption. If successful, these will be acknowledged in the next report.
