New McKinsey study with EconSight technologies and world-class patents
Germany 2030: Exploiting growth opportunities through creative renewal New McKinsey study with EconSight cutting-edge technologies and world-class patents. In view of the fundamental changes in the economy and society, Germany needs a creative renewal to maintain its prosperity and exploit growth opportunities, according to the new McKinsey study. McKinsey identifies 6 fields of action: top companies are expected to transform into high-growth fields; digitization is the most urgent issue in the SME sector; start-ups lack entrepreneurship, start-up culture and capital; future work content must reflect ongoing digitization and be geared toward lifelong learning; and the state [...]
Fuel Cells – Developments and Obstacles
Fuel Cells – Developments and Obstacles EconSight presentation at the Industrialisation of Hydrogen Technology Forum, Nanjing EconSight presented the following charts and arguments at the Industrialisation of Hydrogen Technology Forum in Nanjing, hosted by the China Electrotechnical Society and the Electric Vehicle Association of Asia-Pacific. The EconSight contribution takes the fuel cell development during the last 50 years and asks why it took so long for the market to develop and for attractive products to show up. One answer is that the cooperation between development and automated mass production was more than expandable. Only the strong demand from China [...]
Technologies for effective climate protection
Climate target 2030 - Technologies for effective climate protection Photos: Stefan Obermeier On 17 February in Munich, at the online congress of the Bavarian Business Association, EconSight used more than 60 technologies (GreenTechs) to show what technological contribution Bavaria can make to climate protection. In addition, 20 advanced digitalisation technologies were used to show which climate protection technologies in Bavaria are already highly digitalised.

New publication: World-class patents – the gold of the knowledge economy
New scientific publication World-class patents - the "gold" of the knowledge economy? In "Wirtschaftsdienst", the journal for economic policy, EconSight together with the Bertelsmann Foundation presented our new technology approach. Instead of the classic measurement of innovation capability based on patent applications, our new world-class approach focuses on technology-specific patent quality. Using extensive country examples in different technologies, we show the advantages of the approach and classify the dynamics of patent development. The results show that the U.S. lead in the patent area is even more evident in this approach, that China is also [...]
