Singapore crowned as Asia's most innovative country

It has once again beaten Hong Kong.

Singapore is still Asia-Pacific's most innovative country, according to the 2015 Global Innovation Index.

The city-state retained its spot as the world's seventh-most innovative country. European countries dominated the list of 10 best performers, with Switzerland, the United Kingdom and Sweden taking the top three spots.

In Asia Pacific, Hong Kong came in second to Singapore in terms of innovation, placing 11th on the global list. Other top-performing Asia-Pacific countries include South Korea, New Zealand, Australia and Japan.

The GII is co-published by Cornell University, Insead and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). It covers 141 economies around the world and utilizes 79 indicators to gauge both innovative capabilities and measurable results.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
