Building Knowledge Economies
The World Bank is presenting today its new publication: Building Knowledge Economies: Advances Strategies for Development. This book, produced by WBI's Knowledge for Development Program is the result of more than seven years of research and operational work on knowledge economy strategies and implementation in countries such as Brazil, China, India, Korea, Mexico or Russia.
The book argues that, whatever their level of development, countries should consider embarking on a knowledge- and innovation-based development process. In these times of accelerated globalization, “grey matter” is a country’s main durable resource. Its exploitation for economic and social well-being is increasingly at the center of development strategies.
