Longer-term demographic shifts, climate change, and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic are increasing economic vulnerability. Against this background, The Innovation Imperative in Developing East Asia examines the role of innovation in fostering future economic progress in the region. A central finding of the report is that the countries' innovation institutions and policies are not aligned with their firms' innovation capabilities and needs.
