Global innovator. How the nations gained and lost innovative leadership. Hafez Heasham

Why do some corners of our planet at times abound by a creative and give birth to great generators of ideas, but others do not? And why are those who were once on the innovative advanced, then they are experiencing a period of stagnation and sometimes find themselves overboard? What countries will be on horseback in the coming years, and where is there a risk of losing a competitive innovative advantage? These questions are asked by the author of the book - an entrepreneur who built his business in Europe and Asia, Hesham Hafez. With meticulousness worthy of a graduate of the Harvard business school, he analyzes the history of nations and cultures in terms of innovative breakthroughs. His work is the result of a rethinking of facts, political and economic prerequisites, successful and failure attempts by various communities to break forward in a global innovative race.
