Innovative efficiency of European countries and Ukraine according to the evaluation of the European innovation board

Анотація

Development of most countries depends on an effective innovation policy. Monitoring the innovation efficiency of both individual countries and the European Union as a whole is an integral part of decision-making to improve innovation policy. The European Commission’s annual report “European Innovation Scoreboard” for each EU member state and some other European countries provides indicators that characterize the differences and dynamics of innovation indicators. The methodology of the European Innovation Scoreboard, the composition and number of indicators are constantly changing. The article analyzes the results of the evaluation of innovation efficiency of countries taking into account the changes that have occurred in the methodology of the European Innovation Scoreboard in 2021 and the results of the evaluation of Ukraine against the European countries. There was a decrease of 5.3 % — to 29.8 % — of the consolidated Innovation Index of Ukraine for 2014–2021 compared to the EU in 2014. An analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the innovation system of Ukraine is provided. Since domestic statistics is not available for all indicators, the data obtained for Ukraine is “less reliable”. Ukraine needs to improve its statistical survey of innovation and to radically revisit innovation policy.
