Sub-Pillar 6.1: Knowledge Creation
Other Information:
The first sub-pillar refers to the creation of knowledge. It includes four indicators that are the result of inventive and
innovation activities: patent applications filed by residents both at the national patent office and at the international
level through the PCT; utility model applications filed by residents at the national office; and scientific and technical
published articles in peer-reviewed journals.18 The pillar was strengthened this year with a fifth indicator aimed at assessing
the overall impact of scientific publications: the H index is an economy's number of articles (H) that have received at least
