🚩 The European Innovation Scoreboard 2024! I'm thrilled to share that my home country, Denmark, has once again secured its position as the top innovator among EU member states in the latest European Innovation Scoreboard! This year, Denmark saw a significant 2 to 5 percentage point increase in its innovation score compared to 2023. This development can be attributed to innovative companies like Novo Nordisk, A.P. Moller - Maersk, Danfoss, and many more. However, it's important to recognize that the broader EU landscape faces huge challenges. With 11 member states experiencing a decline in their innovation performance, it underscores the urgency for continued focus and action in fostering radical innovation across the EU. Put differently: it's great to see a host of impressive numbers and positive results for some. But frankly, there are countries and companies that should be shaking in their boots. I have attached the Executive summary.  The main report can be found here: https://lnkd.in/d_eycNBj #Innovation ##EuropeanInnovation #EU #TechnologyLeadership

The report European Innovation Scoreboard 2024 presents a fascinating narrative that diverges from the common discourse on Canada's innovation landscape, which often emphasizes its precarious position. Could this discrepancy solely be attributed to differing methodologies? https://lnkd.in/eWi4q_Ea

As I engage with the new generation of leaders at Renata, I’m constantly inspired by the potential and passion they bring. It’s clear that our industry is full of promise, and the desire to learn and understand more deeply is evident in every conversation. This hunger for knowledge has been one of the driving forces behind the growth of Bangladesh's pharmaceutical industry over the last few years. We’ve made significant progress because we’ve committed ourselves to understanding the complexities of this industry. However, there remains a gap – one that stems from the absence of structured guidance that other major markets, like India and China, benefit from. If we want to continue thriving, we must do more than just learn; we need to align more closely across the industry. Collaboration is key. Inter-company and intra-company leaders need to come together, speak up, share ideas, and push not only their own companies but the entire industry forward. This isn’t just about growth for the sake of growth, but about building a future where the collective knowledge and innovation we foster today paves the way for lasting success tomorrow. Let’s be the generation of leaders that not only leads but lifts each other up.

ABB Marine and Ports Thought Leadership Summit – Helsinki - 2024   ABB is one of the leading B2B brands in the world. Maritime is the most important business in the world, given that over 80% of the goods that we rely upon everyday are carried by sea. With this firmly in mind, we have an obligation to contribute to the dialogue surrounding such important and emotive topics as decarbonization in shipping. Yes it's a business commitment, but it's also a duty we take very seriously.   Tomorrow will see some of the brightest minds in maritime descend on Helsinki from across ABB’s global network for our inaugural thought leader summit. We will also be joined by a number of specialist agencies from both Helsinki and London to help us channel these thoughts by way of revolutionary presentation training and groundbreaking techniques to leverage thought leadership in the most effective way possible.   Thought leadership is indisputably one of the most effective forms of contemporary marketing and communication. Done well, it gives rise to a powerful competitive advantage. Equally important as sharing insights, it is about our business goals of driving orders and revenue growth. By amplifying stories around adoption of electrification and digitalization across the maritime industry we aim to increase market awareness and penetration while at the same time, providing meaningful contribution to the wider debate.   This is not simply about differentiating us from the competition, it is about reaffirming our position as a leader in the industry and shaping the future of the maritime sector toward more sustainable and efficient solutions. Thought leadership is not just about influencing, it is a collective responsibility to move the world forward.   #ABB #ThoughtLeadership #Innovation #Digitalization #Electrification #Maritime #Sustainability #BusinessGrowth #IndustryLeadership
