In this paper, we observe that developed countries are generally equipped with innovation capabilities and produce major chunk of the world’s knowledge and technology. The contribution of developing countries, on the other hand, is insignificant, and most of them far behind the global technological front. More specifically, we empirically observe that the developing world neither contributes su...
متن کاملDiseases are invisible.
The success of modern medicine is closely related to its ability to transcend the human senses. Technological advances such as stethoscopes, microscopes, and x rays overstep the boundaries of human perception. They enable us to see what is invisible to the unaided senses. These technologies have brought about fundamental changes to medicine-for the most part for the better. But they have also c...

This paper examines the persistence of innovation behaviour at the firm level (manufacturing and services sectors). We attempt to answer the question: does being successful in past innovation activities increase the probability of being successful in current innovation activities?

متن کاملTracking Changing Environments: Innovators Are Fast, but Not Flexible Learners
Behavioural innovations are increasingly thought to provide a rich source of phenotypic plasticity and evolutionary change. Innovation propensity shows substantial variation across avian taxa and provides an adaptive mechanism by which behaviour is flexibly adjusted to changing environmental conditions. Here, we tested for the first time the prediction that inter-individual variation in innovat...
