New AIM Report launched on UK Innovation drawing on research to date.

Competing on Knowledge: The UKs Global Innovation Challenge

AIM's unique approach can make a significant contribution to the business, policy and academic arenas. We are committed to providing opportunities for academics, managers and policy makers to reflect on what they already know about creating successful and effective organisations and tacking key areas which require new collaborative research.

In recent years, "innovate or die" has become a cliché. Yet, as is usually the case with over-used phrases, it contains a substantial nugget of truth. Innovation is essential to business health and wealth - both for individual firms and national economies. In particular, innovation is linked to superior competitiveness and productivity.

Traditionally, the UK has been regarded as good at innovation - with many inventions and scientific breakthroughs emanating from within these shores. But the fact is that for many years the UK economy has underperformed in terms of innovation.

This Briefing draws on AIM's research to date. Taken together this research offers a glimpse of innovation in an increasingly globalised world.
