Summary
The aim of this chapter is to analyze how the relative performance of National Innovation Systems (NIS) in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and the BRICS countries of Brazil, the Russian Federation, India, China, and South Africa could impact countries’ long-run economic growth rates. To that end, we first estimated the relative efficiency of national innovation systems and their main objectives in those countries, creation, diffusion, and utilization, using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) software. Then we analyzed how relative NIS performance (efficiency) could impact each country’s economic growth.
