"Enabling Innovation Measurement at the Sub-National Level"

Enabling Innovation Measurement at the Sub-National Level is part of the World Intellectual Property Organization’s (WIPO) Intellectual Property (IP) and Innovation Ecosystems Sector (IES) response to supporting member states wishing to develop their own complementary and mutually reinforcing sub-national innovation indices. Drawing on the Global Innovation Index (GII) framework WIPO is proceeding in two ways: 1) organizing workshops on the exchange of best practices, and 2) providing this study on sub-national innovation indices.

On the occasion of the 65th Series of Meetings of the Assemblies of the Member States of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), the WIPO Secretariat is pleased to invite you to a hybrid panel discussion:

Asia is poised to become the world’s largest energy consumer. Projections for rapid economic and population growth in the Asian region suggest it will account for up to half of total global energy demand by 2050.

As the world seeks to meet the critical objectives of low carbon societies and decarbonised energy ecosystems, whilst addressing the trilemma of security, affordability and sustainability, how Asia rises to the challenge will shape the global energy landscape of tomorrow.

Asia must therefore play a leading role in supercharging a just global energy transition through strengthening international cooperation on policies, action on funding initiatives and the development of technology solutions that can enable a future of clean, affordable energy access and sustainable economic growth for all.

Endorsed by the Ministry of Energy, Thailand and co-hosted by PTT Group and EGAT, the Future Energy Asia 2024 Exhibition and Summit, incorporating Future LNG Asia and Future Mobility Asia, will be held in Bangkok, Thailand, on 15 – 17 May 2024, convening over 22,000 international energy professionals, investors, and innovators to influence, support and deliver Asia’s clean energy vision.

Once again serving as the platform to showcase Asia’s energy transition and clean mobility mission on the global stage, Future Energy Asia 2024 is more than an annual international industry event; it is a collective call to action for Asia to harness the immense potential of its own transformation journey.

Join us this May and be a part of the crucial public and private sector dialogues and cross-sector industry partnerships that will help enable Asia to lead the world on the pathway to secure, affordable and sustainable energy generation.
