瑞士再次被评为世界上最具创新力的经济体。总部位于日内瓦的联合国机构世界知识产权组织（WIPO）在其2026年全球创新指数中连续第七次得出这一结论。就前20名而言，排名与前一年基本保持不变。瑞典排在第二位，领先于美国、韩国、新加坡和英国。荷兰（第7名）和芬兰（第8名）交换了位置，而丹麦和中国仍然分别排在第9和第10位。
Switzerland again ranks as the most innovative economy in the world. The Geneva-based World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, reached this conclusion for the seventh successive occasion as part of its Global Innovation Index 2026. In terms of the top 20, the order has remained largely unchanged versus the previous year. Sweden is ranked in second place ahead of the USA, South Korea, Singapore and the UK. The Netherlands (7) and Finland (8) have traded places, while as before Denmark and China remain in 9th and 10th place respectively.
与去年一样，德国和法国排名第11和第13位，而奥地利（18）与爱尔兰（19）互换。这些排名包含了约80个指标，包括研究与开发（R & D）支出、风险投资交易、高科技出口和专利申请。该指数旨在为政策制定者、商界领袖和其他利益相关者提供促进创新的参考。从全球来看，2025年创新初创企业和商业概念投资增长了28%，达到5100亿美元，反映了2021年以来的最大增长。
In a repeat of last year, Germany and France and ranked in 11th and 13th place, while Austria (18) has swapped with Ireland (19).These rankings incorporate around 80 indicators, including research and development (R&D) spending, venture capital deals, high-tech exports and patent applications. The index is intended to serve as a reference for policymakers, business leaders and other stakeholders when it comes to promoting innovation. Globally, investment in innovative start-ups and business concepts was up by 28 percent to 510 billion US dollars in 2025, reflecting the sharpest growth recorded since 2021.
与此同时，风险投资融资交易总数有所下降，尽管从地理上看分布范围更广。例如，非洲初创企业总计融资32亿美元，比上年增长40%。瑞士在七项短期指标上有所改善：自2024年以来，科学出版物数量增加了0.8%（自2015年以来增长了2.9%），研发投资自2023年以来增长了1.3%，固定宽带覆盖率也提高了1%。生产力（+1.8%）和预期寿命（+0.3%）也有所增长。
At the same time, the total number of venture capital financing deals declined, although there is a broader spread geographically speaking. For example, African start-ups raised a total of 3.2 billion US dollars, which represents an increase of 40 percent on the prior year. Switzerland has improved across seven short-term indicators: the number of scientific publications has risen by 0.8 percent since 2024 (+2.9 percent since 2015), R&D investment is up by 1.3 percent since 2023, while fixed broadband coverage has improved by 1 percent as well. Increases have also been recorded in relation to productivity (+1.8 percent) and life expectancy (+0.3 percent).
自2023年以来增长了5.9%（自2014年以来增长了10.8%），机器人尤其是电动汽车的进步尤其明显，自2024年以来增长了25%，自2015年以来增长了43.2%。然而，专利申请数量同比增长-6.2%。同期，投资轮数下降尤为明显，其中下降了19.1轮。
With growth of 5.9 percent since 2023 (+10.8 percent since 2014), the improvement has been particularly pronounced in robotics and, above all, in electric vehicles, where growth of 25 percent since 2024 and 43.2 percent since 2015 has been recorded. However, at -6.2 percent year on year, the number of patent applications developed negatively. Across the same period, the number of investment rounds fell particularly sharply, with a decline of 19.1 percented here.
