 * We are constantly being told that we live in a competitive world in which innovation is the main driver towards growth and prosperity. What is the place in such a world for fundamental science, whose short-term contribution to society is knowledge without any immediate application? Is it an unnecessary luxury? Should the world be deploying its resources in pursuit of more pressing needs: public health, clean energy, safe water? Of course it should, and I believe that investment in fundamental science serves these goals. It is a long-term investment, laying the foundations for future innovation and prosperity.

Economic Freedom

 * 2006 Index of Economic Freedom
 * The Heritage Foundation/Wall Street Journal Index of Economic Freedom
 * Economic freedom is defined as the absence of government coercion or constraint on the production, distribution, or consumption of goods and services beyond the extent necessary for citizens to protect and maintain liberty itself. In other words, people are free to work, produce, consume, and invest in the ways they feel are most productive. The countries with the most economic freedom also have higher rates of long-term economic growth and are more prosperous than are those with less economic freedom.
 * The 2006 Index of Economic Freedom measures 161 countries against a list of 50 independent variables divided into 10 broad factors of economic freedom. Low scores are more desirable. The higher the score on a factor, the greater the level of government interference in the economy and the less economic freedom a country enjoys. These 50 variables are grouped into the following categories: Trade policy, Fiscal burden of government, Government intervention in the economy, Monetary policy, Capital flows and foreign investment, Banking and finance, Wages and prices, Property rights, Regulation, and Informal market activity.

Technology and Competitiveness

 * Networked Readiness Index (NRI)
 * The World Economic Forum's Networked Readiness Index (NRI) measures the propensity for countries to exploit the opportunities offered by information and communications technology. It is published annually. The NRI seeks to better comprehend the impact of ICT on the competitiveness of nations. The NRI is a composite of three components: the environment for ICT offered by a given country or community, the readiness of the communityÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s key stakeholders (individuals, businesses, and governments) to use ICT, and finally the usage of ICT amongst these stakeholders.


 * Information and Communication Technology Diffusion Index (ICTDI)
 * There is an immense information and communication technology (ICT) gap, a Ã¢â‚¬Å“digital divideÃ¢â‚¬Â, between developed and developing countries. A person in a high-income country is over 22 times more likely to be an Internet user than someone in a low-income country. Secure Internet servers, a rough indicator of electronic commerce, are over 100 times more common in high-income than in low-income countries. In high-income countries, mobile phones are 29 times more prevalent and mainline penetration is 21 times that of low-income countries. Relative to income, the cost of Internet access in a low-income country is 150 times the cost of a comparable service in a high-income country. There are similar divides within individual countries. ICT is often non-existent in poor and rural areas of developing countries.


 * Global Software Piracy Study
 * Thirty-five percent of the packaged software installed on personal computers (PC) worldwide in 2005 was illegal, amounting to $34 billion in global losses due to software piracy. However, some improvements in a number of markets indicate education, enforcement and policy efforts are beginning to pay off in emerging economies such as China, Russia and India and in Central/Eastern Europe and the Middle East & Africa.

Entrepreneurship

 * The Doing Business database provides objective measures of business regulations and their enforcement. The Doing Business indicators are comparable across 175 economies. They indicate the regulatory costs of business and can be used to analyze specific regulations that enhance or constrain investment, productivity, and growth.
 * http://www.doingbusiness.org/


 * The Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) research program is an annual assessment of the national level of entrepreneurial activity. Initiated in 1999 with 10 countries, expanded to 21 in the year 2000, with 29 countries in 2001 and 37 countries in 2002. GEM 2006 will conduct research in 39 countries.

Small Business: Solidwaste Recycling

 * Date: 2002
 * Abstract:
 * Resumen: En los paÃƒÂ­ses del primer mundo la basura es un problema ambiental pero en la mayorÃƒÂ­a de los paÃƒÂ­ses del tercer mundo, es ademÃƒÂ¡s un problema social. PodrÃƒÂ­amos decir que existe un circuito econÃƒÂ³mico alrededor de la basura; por ejemplo, en Lima existe un gran nÃƒÂºmero de pequeÃƒÂ±as empresas informales que se dedican al reciclaje, comercializaciÃƒÂ³n y el procesamiento de todo tipo de desechos. Para esto, la mano de obra de la industria informal de basura estÃƒÂ¡ conformada por niÃƒÂ±os, mujeres y ancianos provenientes de las zonas marginales que viven en condiciones de extrema pobreza. Las actuales condiciones de trabajo en la industria de la basura son deplorables y miles de personas se ven expuestas a sufrir graves daÃƒÂ±os a su salud pues realizan el trabajo sin estar capacitados y sin contar con un mÃƒÂ­nimo equipo de protecciÃƒÂ³n. El resultado no es otro que el deterioro de la calidad de vida de un gran sector de la poblaciÃƒÂ³n y el aumento de los niveles de contaminaciÃƒÂ³n ambiental. Un adecuado procesamiento de los desechos disminuye considerablemente los efectos socio-ambientales producidos por el manejo informal de la basura. Existe una gran cantidad de soluciones eco-tecnolÃƒÂ³gicas que pueden aplicarse, por ejemplo el uso de biodigestores para la producciÃƒÂ³n de abono a partir de desechos orgÃƒÂ¡nicos o el reciclaje de envases de PET para la producciÃƒÂ³n de cemento polimÃƒÂ©rico. Para cada tipo de desecho existe una soluciÃƒÂ³n tecnolÃƒÂ³gica que convierte a la basura en materia prima y ademÃƒÂ¡s permite el desarrollo de productos con valor agregado. AquÃƒÂ­ la tarea esta en manos de las instituciones acadÃƒÂ©micas y universidades que deben ofrecer soluciones tecnolÃƒÂ³gicas adecuadas a las condiciones existentes en el paÃƒÂ­s. La soluciÃƒÂ³n es clara: transformar a la industria informal de la basura en una industria formal tecnificada y generadora de productos con valor agregado. De esta manera esencialmente lograremos mejorar la calidad de vida de un gran numero de personas que viven de la basura y contribuir a la disminuciÃƒÂ³n de la contaminaciÃƒÂ³n ambiental.

Small Business: New Materials and Plastic Recycling

 * Date: 2001
 * Abstract:
 * Resumen: El proyecto consiste en promover la formaciÃƒÂ³n de pequeÃƒÂ±as empresas tecnolÃƒÂ³gicas dedicadas a la fabricaciÃƒÂ³n de adoquines y bloques prefabricados reforzados con materiales plÃƒÂ¡sticos reciclados. Estas pequeÃƒÂ±as empresas utilizarÃƒÂ¡n una nueva tecnologÃƒÂ­a de fabricaciÃƒÂ³n de materiales prefabricados que es eco-eficiente y resultado de 3 aÃƒÂ±os de investigaciÃƒÂ³n universitaria. Las actividades principales del proyecto son la construcciÃƒÂ³n de una planta piloto semi-industrial y la capacitaciÃƒÂ³n en eco-eficiencia de un grupo de empresas clandestinas dedicadas al reciclaje informal de materiales plÃƒÂ¡sticos en los distritos de San MartÃƒÂ­n de Porres, El RÃƒÂ­mac, Vitarte y Villa El Salvador. El efecto negativo en el medio ambiente se minimiza debido a un adecuado manejo y reciclaje de los residuos, ademÃƒÂ¡s porque la tecnologÃƒÂ­a desarrollada no produce residuos ni emisiones contaminantes.

Biodegradable Detergent

 * Date: 2000
 * Abstract:
 * Resumen: Se propone como alternativa de soluciÃƒÂ³n a la contaminaciÃƒÂ³n de las aguas por causa de los detergentes con alto contenido de fÃƒÂ³sforo; el empleo de un detergente hecho a base de Sapindus saponaria que se caracteriza por ser biodegradable no contaminando las aguas marÃƒÂ­timas y el reciclaje de los residuos de este proceso. Se obtiene un material granulado que puede sustituir al cemento, obteniÃƒÂ©ndose un producto mÃƒÂ¡s liviano y de resistencia semejante a la mezcla sin el aditivo. El ciclo productivo no deja residuos y el rendimiento respecto al detergente es del 20% y respecto al material de construcciÃƒÂ³n es del 80%. Entre las propiedades del detergente se puede mencionar que enjabona y forma espuma con agua frÃƒÂ­a, contiene un suavizante natural y para lograr el efecto de limpieza se requieren de pequeÃƒÂ±as cantidades (5% del volumen total).Este detergente se utiliza en el lavado de ropa y vajilla. Respecto al ahorro de materiales y energÃƒÂ­a se logra la minimizaciÃƒÂ³n de residuos por medio del aprovechamiento integral de la materia prima y el reciclamiento y utilizaciÃƒÂ³n de residuos.
