Denmark has just been ranked as the second best country in the EU in terms of innovation and research.
A statement issued here by Embassy of Denmark on Friday said the Innovation Union Scoreboard 2011 was prepared by the Maastricht Economic and Social Research and Training Centre on Innovation and Technology (MERIT), in collaboration with the European Commission's in-house science service, the Joint Research Centre (JRC).
Highest ranked as "innovation leaders" is Sweden followed by Denmark, Germany and Finland.
Almost all Member States have improved their innovation performance according to the Innovation Union Scoreboard 2011.
However, innovation performance growth is slowing down and the EU is not closing the persistent gap with global innovation leaders US, Japan and South Korea.-PR
