The record, which beat the 500 index for three consecutive years, Rose 4% in the year, and the market-weighted revenue growth rate reached 2%. The winners totaled nearly 4.5 trillion dollars, about twice times the size of British GDP. In the past year, the award-winning companies have created 266,152 jobs, more than 0.81% of the new jobs created by companies in the standard and Poole 500 index. This year, the award-winning enterprise's research and development spending is 8.8% higher than that of the standard and poor 500 index, and a total of $223 billion is spent on research and development.
In the 2013 winners of the world's hundred innovation institutions, North America was selected as the largest in the list of 46 companies and institutions, including 45 from the United States and another from Canada. Asia ranked 32 in the list, including 28 in Japan, 3 in Korea and 1 in Taiwan. Europe has 22 companies and institutions selected, the largest winners are France (12) and Switzerland (4).
Mainland China has again been denied the winners of the world's largest innovation institutions this year. While mainland Chinese companies are leading the world in the number of patent applications, the performance of the "Global Impact" project in the Global hundred innovation institutions is constrained by the fact that most patents are limited to domestic claims.
In this year's list, the semiconductor and electronics 0 component industries continue to dominate, with a total of 23 companies on the list, up 28% from the previous year. Since the inception of the award, the proportion of semiconductor industry has climbed 64%, the first list of only 14 companies in the semiconductor sector. The innovation ability of computer hardware industry ranked second, 11 companies were selected. The auto industry was selected by 8 companies, slightly ahead of last year's 7 (Nissan). Since the founding of the Global hundred innovation institutions, the share of auto industry has increased by 167%, initially only 3 were selected. Telecoms and industry each have 7 companies into this year's hundred list.
Smartphone Wars Drive innovation
From this year's hundred most innovative award-winning list can be seen, smart phone field competition is very fierce, including Apple, Microsoft, Samsung, Google, BlackBerry and other smartphone patent wars are in the list. BlackBerry first boarded the list of hundred innovation institutions this year, the company in 2010, 2011, the number of patent applications increased by an average of 38%, 2011 to 2012 also increased by 17%. BlackBerry recently announced a takeover of FairFax Financial Holdings, one reason for wanting to further expand its proprietary portfolio.
Development spending growth drives innovation
It is also noteworthy that research and development spending by hundred innovative institutions is on the rise. In 2012, hundreds of innovative institutions spent as much as $223.2 billion on research and development, a 8.8% per cent higher than the standard and poor 500 index. In addition, hundreds of innovative institutions will spend an average of 5% of their revenue on research and development, while the standard and poor 500 index companies will only spend 2.1% of their revenue on research and development. "From our findings, it is clear from our findings that the higher the cost of research and development, the more patents are applied and the higher the number of innovative achievements," said Thomson Reuters analyst Gordon Brown. ”
