Launch Of Smart Centres Index 6

Find a copy of the report here: https://bit.ly/3ET8Kmi In this webinar, we launch the sixth edition of the Smart Centres Index (SCI 6). The SCI is designed to track the development of technology and financial centres across the world in their support for and readiness for new technology applications.  Investors, entrepreneurs, scientists, media, academics, governments, and regulators can attune their cities to attract innovation and growth in Science, Technology, Energy Systems, Machine Learning, Distributed Ledgers, or Fintech. Tuning a city for innovation is complex. Z/Yen began studying successful and unsuccessful business innovation clustering some 15 years ago, and published in 2018 the Smart Jurisdictions Index. Building on the results of that research we have created a novel factor assessment index based on three dimensions - innovation support, creative intensity, and delivery capability.  The SCI is designed to track the readiness of business centres across the world to support new technology businesses. The SCI uses assessments from private and public sector individuals, along with 138 instrumental factors, to rate the centres. This important project that will grow substantially as more people pay attention to the ways centres can help globally innovative businesses thrive in rapidly changing times.    Interested in watching our webinars live, or taking part in the production of our research?
