Abstract
Our understanding of innovation has changed:
where once it was understood to be largely the
result of scientific research and development,
it is now seen more widely to include changes
to services, ways of working and delivery,
customer insight and many other forms. This
has been described by NESTA and others as
‘hidden innovation’.
There has been a gap in knowledge about the
extent of such innovation. Traditional metrics
have focused on investment in research and
development, and its outputs. But there has
been no comprehensive measurement of
hidden innovation within the UK economy.
The Innovation Index seeks to measure the
wider forms of innovation and to present the
results comprehensively at both the aggregate
level of the national economy and at the level
of individual sectors and firms. It adds to the
knowledge generated by existing surveys, such
as the Community Innovation Survey, as well
as work in the United States and by the OECD,
by, for example, providing further contextual
data of the specific type of wider innovation
undertaken and the particular sources of
external engagement.
