Current trends in Swiss innovation activities
Switzerland is one of the most competitive countries in the world. Commercially successful innovation activities are an essential part of this achievement. However, for some years innovation statistics show a significant decline in the fraction of research and development (R&D) active companies in Switzerland that is particularly notable in small and medium enterprises (SMEs).
On behalf of the State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation (SERI) and with the support of Innosuisse and several industry associations (Swiss Medtech, Interpharma, Swico, SBA, SFTI, SIA), a research team from the FHNW, ETH, HSG and EPFL is analysing current trends in Swiss innovation activity and new innovation models.
