“Austria is on the verge of entering the top ranks in Europe with respect to innovation. In only two years, we improved from 11th to 7th place, which is the second best results every achieved in the history of the European Innovation Scorecard. This shows that we are on the path to success, and that our measures and projects such as increasing R&D investments or our open innovation strategy are beginning to have an impact”, says Harald Mahrer, Federal Minister of Science, Research and Economy, commenting on the European Innovation Scorecard 2017 published by the European Commission.
