Innovating for Productivity: Unlocking Global Potential through Strategic Growth

Strengthening science, technology, and innovation (STI) capacity is crucial for sustaining productivity and shifting toward a knowledge-based economy. Technological innovation, powered by automation and resource optimization, enhances output while reducing costs. R&D, a core pillar of STI, ensures that economies remain competitive by creating new products and processes. Continuous investment in STI is vital for perpetuating innovation and maintaining long-term productivity in an increasingly technology-driven global market.
