"The top rankings of Switzerland and the Nordic countries show that good institutions and competent macroeconomic management, coupled with world-class educational attainment and a focus on technology and innovation, are a successful strategy for boosting competitiveness in an increasingly complex global economy."
Augusto Lopez-Claros, Chief Economist; Director, Global Competitiveness Network
"The world economy is not a zero-sum game. Many nations can improve their prosperity if they can improve productivity. The central challenge in economic development, then, is how to create the conditions for rapid and sustained productivity growth."
Michael E. Porter, Bishop William Lawrence University Professor, Harvard Business School
