About

As companies seek to maintain a competitive advantage, they must identify which countries provide the greatest opportunity, either for new market expansion or to establish a manufacturing or services hub or an innovation center. These decisions require weighing a wide range of factors.

In today’s world, talent is the scarce resource that companies compete for. Working-age populations in many developed countries are shrinking, while established emerging markets are seeing labor costs rise. The regulatory environment is shifting as a wave of protectionist policies has overtaken the globe. Businesses are being pressured by investors to realize short-term profits, sometimes at the expense of new product and policy innovation.

This research report will enable your organization to make better decisions about expanding or growing its global presence. We examine the regulatory regimes, talent bases, educational frameworks, macro environments, and business risk environments in over 50 countries by creating a customized scorecard and country ranking model to meet your specific business needs.

Objectives

  • Provide a guide for strategic global investment decisions centered on innovation and talent
  • Select and develop key metrics of countries’ standing on several innovation, competitiveness, and economic stability pillars
  • Model a synthetic index to rank countries based on these metrics
  • Analyze the innovation environment in each ranked country
  • Define a selection of outcomes specific to your needs

Why?

This research will define which countries provide an innovative, business-friendly and economically stable investment environment. If you are considering market entry or expanding operations outside of your home country, this research will prove to be an essential part of your due diligence. If you are within a country trying to attract new business investment, this research will provide a roadmap for success. If you are looking to show customers that you have a grasp of the global business environment for innovation, this research will prove an invaluable tool.

The research project leads have over 40 combined years of experience in global economics, market research, and business strategy for a diverse set of companies from startups to the Fortune 500.  We look forward to working with you.
