For example, the Global Innovation Index (GII) has measured innovation since 2007. GII tracks some 80 innovation indicators in around 132 countries each year, and rankings naturally vary from year to year, due to a variety of factors, including the Covid-19 pandemic (2020-2023).

This 2013 video emphasizes military training and experience as factors in successful IT startups. 

Higher education also offers training and experience useful for startups, across sectors from agriculture to medicine, from chemistry to transportation. 

For example, in 2009 Dr. Ada Yonath, Dr. Venki Ramakrishnan, and Dr. Thomas A. Steitz won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry. Dr. Yonath was the first Israeli woman to win the prize, and is one of 10 Israeli prize laureates. Find a full list of Nobel laureates here.
