Innovation Index - Ranking the US and the World [Infographic]
Innovation is said to be a key driver of economic growth and prosperity. Vaccinations and sanitation throughout the world have saved millions of lives in the last century. Inventions and technology have fostered increases in industry and productivity that have changed the face of our cities and infrastructures. But what makes a one country more favorable than another?
The Global Innovation Index by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) aims to answer that very question in their 417 page analysis found here: 2013 GII Index. Using an inclusive, horizontal vision of innovation applicable to both emerging and developed countries, this index ranks various countries based upon dozens of factors that impact the environment for innovation.

How Automation Improves Business Performance and Overall Society
Automation continues to play an increasingly large role in our lives as humans leverage technology to improve quality of life. At Dolphin, automation is a huge part of what we do, and the services that we provide. Through Accounts Payable automation in SAP, customers see increases in productivity by as much as 30 percent or more and reductions in cost per invoice by up to 60 percent.
Looking at the concept of automation at an even larger level, we thought it would be a fun and interesting exercise to create an infographic highlighting the impact that automation has had on our ability to improve business performance in addition to its impact of society-at-large. From agriculture to accounting, and from travel agents to toll takers to telephone operators, automation has reduced business costs and improved efficiency over the last several decades.
