We introduce new data and insights to measure the global research and innovation performance of member countries and regions ahead of the G20 summit in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. This guide explores how our online interactive scorecard offers dynamic visualizations and insights into global trends.<\/em><\/p>\n

Each year, the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI)\u2122 at Clarivate\u2122 releases its annual G20 scorecard<\/a> to offer insights into the broad contributions of the research and innovation capabilities of each member. This year\u2019s edition marks a significant milestone with the inclusion of data for both the original 20th member, the European Union (EU) and the African Union (AU), which was granted full member status in September 2023.<\/p>\n

The EU, as a major economic and research hub, is an important inclusion, and the addition of the AU reflects the expanding representation of the G20. By incorporating these two significant unions, we present a more inclusive and comprehensive scorecard, acknowledging the unique challenges and achievements of these regions and ensuring their substantial contributions to the global research landscape are accurately represented.<\/p>\n

At the ISI we continue to promote responsible and meaningful assessment of research performance through the use of advanced metrics and indicators. This year we introduce a new indicator to our scorecard to measure the number of citations each research paper receives from related patents, with the total normalized against the average number of citations received by all papers published in the same year. We have also expanded on prior years\u2019 analysis to include new data on the collaborative and accessible nature of research focused on the United Nations\u2019 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).<\/p>\n
