About the Global Innovation Index (GII)-

  • The GII project was launched by Professor Soumitra Dutta in 2007 during his tenure at INSEAD. 
  • The goal was to find and determine metrics and methods that could capture a picture of innovation in society that is as complete as possible. 
  • WIPO started its association with the GII in 2011 and began co-publishing the GII in 2012. 
  • In 2013, Cornell University joined as co-publisher, with Professor Dutta representing the GII at Cornell University and Bruno Lanvin at INSEAD. 
  • The GII continued to be co-published by Cornell University, INSEAD and WIPO up to 2020. 
  • As of 2021, the GII is published by WIPO in partnership with the Portulans Institute, various corporate and academic network partners and the GII Advisory Board.

The Index comprises around 80 indicators, including measures on the political environment, education, infrastructure and knowledge creation of each economy.
