W= Total Wealth

K = Produced Capital

Produced capital consists of physical assets generated by applying human productive activities to natural capital and capable of providing a flow of goods or services.

R = Extraction

Extraction = is the act or a instance of extracting; the process of being

extracted, removal.

F = Production

K = Produced CapitalR = Extraction

N= Fixed Population

N = Fixed Population

The total number of inhabitants constituting a particular race, class, or group in a specified area.

Fixed Population for Philippines:95 Million

In order to build foresight in 2020

We identified 3 Themes that affects Innovation in a country:

1. Personalisation2. Collaboration

3. Innovation

Innovation: Transforming the way business creates includes global ranking of countriesAn Economist Intelligence Unit white paper sponsored by Cisco Systems

1. Personalisation

-goes beyond customisation, allowing the consumer to stamp the product or service with his or her own applications, preferences, and configurations. Technology is a high degree of personalisation, with the wide range of downloadable applications available.


2. Collaboration

-means to work together, and our research focuses specifically on formal collaborative arrangements at work that build traditional geographic, institutional and functional boundaries.


2. Collaboration

The emphasis on core competencies,

the need for corporate agility and the

rise of emerging markets have caused

firms to focus on collaboration both

within and among organizations.


2. Collaboration

Collaboration among functional groups and organizations will help companies become more productive and innovative.


3. Innovation

The application of knowledge in a novel way, primary for economic benefit – is becoming increasingly important for companies and government.


Government Policy Makers

see the need for an innovative environment if their economies are to prosper.


Government Policy Makers

need to know the indicators of innovation efficiency:

1. Highlight certain possible inadequacies in certain

environment factors2. Number of work permits for foreign

scientist and engineers


What makes a country innovative?

1.Technical Skills of the workforce

2. Quality of IT / telecommunications

infrastructure

DIRECT DRIVERS OF INNOVATION

1. R&D as a % GDP2. Quality of a local

research infrastructure

3. Education of the workforce

Innovation Efficiency

A comparison on its innovation output (performance) with its ranking on direct innovations can provide an insight into the efficiency of innovation.


For investors

The International Innovation Rankings are useful because to some extent the more innovative a country, the greater its growth potential.


Foresight 2020

In the next five years, nearly 60% of the 82 countries studied are likely to improve their innovation performance


What is happening to our country…

Our creative geniuses are leaving the country.

Making Japanese, Europeanand American companies benefit from the scholars ofour nation.

What is happening to our country…

We are allowing our geniuses to be brandedby a foreign country.

Example is the “Thai Rice”who was invented and developed by a Scientist.

Where have all our geniuses gone?

The most innovative country

15 out of the top 25 performers on the innovation index are with countries with fewer than 10 million inhabitants.

-Switzerland, Sweden and Finland.

Small Countries

with cluster of world-class companies in research intensive sectors and their universally high standards of education, especially in science and mathematics, guarantee their continued success at creating wealth through their innovation prowess.

#1 Innovative Country - Japan

The Japanese education fosters conformity, not creativity.

Several factors propel Japan to the position of top innovator. For one thing, this resource-poor economy has long taken an “innovate or die” approach


How?

- There is a symbiotic relationship between large companies and associated smaller firms that were closely integrated into so-called “keiretsu” and were under strong pressure to innovate.


How did their government do this?

Japan invests proportionally more in R&D – Research and Development

than the US.

Japan US3.35% of GDP

2.79% of GDP

#2 Innovative Country - Switzerland

Is a leading innovator. With it’s high tech clusters in the horological, electrical and pharmaceutical companies.

#3 Innovative Country – United States

300 Milion Population – at the top of the list .

Its high ranking says much about the creativity of its companies as well as the efficiency of its patenting process.

China and India

are breaking out of their position as,members of the underdeveloped

world.

China

Has already taken Japan to become

the world’s second largest investor in R&D.

China US $136 bn 2006

JAPAN

130 bn

AMERICA

330 bn

China

can expect to benefit more that India from foreign direct investment because of its more favorable regulatory and economic climate. Much of China’s inbound investment will continue to target innovation-rich sectors such as:

China

Mobile and fixed communicationsAviationVehicle ManufacturingPharmaceuticals and foodstuffs

Multinational Companies are

opening

Research Centers in China, lured by the fact that local scientists are paid only about 20% as much as Western Scientists.

Multinational Companies

Exploit this situation, more than 300 foreign

companies, including major life science firms, have established R&D

Centres in China.

China

is not an innovation

utopia.

China

Problems include the rampant theft of intellectual property, academic fraud, weak financial markets, and political meddling in science and research. Chinese innovation remains weak.

Where is the wealth of my nation?

http://www.powerpointstyles.com/

It is in your hands.It is by how we manage our resources,

our collective effort and how we as a nation can work together in a shared responsibility in uplifting our nation.

“Choose a good reputation over great riches; being held in high esteem is better than silver or

gold.”-Proverbs 22:1, New Living Translation

We are sitting on untapped pot of

gold.Our country is rich

in minerals and natural resources.

According to Simon Anholt,

Growing from 35 to now 50 countries, The Anholt-GfK Roper Nation Brands Index measures the power and quality of each country's 'brand image' by combining the following six dimensions:

1. Exports

Determines the public's image of products and services from each country and the extent to which consumers proactively seek or avoid products from each country-of-origin.

2. Governance

Measures public opinion regarding the level of national government competency and fairness and describes individuals' beliefs about each country's government, as well as its perceived commitment to global issues such as democracy, justice, poverty and the environment.

3. Culture and Heritage

Reveals global perceptions of each nation's heritage and appreciation for its contemporary culture, including film, music, art, sport and literature.

4. People

Measures the population's reputation for competence, education, openness and friendliness and other qualities, as well as perceived levels of potential hostility and discrimination.

5. Tourism

Captures the level of interest in visiting a country and the draw of natural and man-made tourist attraction

6. Investment and Immigration

Determines the power to attract people to live, work or study in each country and reveals how people perceive a country's economic and social situation.
