Determinants of the Performance of Countries’ Innovation Ecosystems
The pandemic marked the beginning of a succession of events on a global scale (not the least of which is a greater concern for the environment and for quality of life/distance work) with a major impact on the economy. Innovation plays a key role in meeting the challenges of the future, but despite investment in innovation, global economic growth has fallen short of the expected performance. it is important to note that innovations depend to a large extent on a suitable market environment (i.e., one conducive to innovation) and that improving a country’s capacity for innovation improves companies’ capacity for innovation. It is, therefore, essential to understand which factors most influence innovation performance, with the aim of directing policies and investment towards the areas with the greatest impact on results.

Performance Evaluation of Retail Warehouses
A warehouse is one of the most critical parts of many companies, essential to facilitating trade. With a robust warehouse management system, a business can satisfy customer demand. Additionally, it helps guarantee that the products are affordable, easily accessible, and delivered quickly to a network of customers. However, if not properly structured and managed, it may prevent a business from competing effectively, locally and worldwide. One of the most crucial ways to enhance warehouses and assist managers in continuously monitoring their operations is warehouse performance measurement. Management must establish a variety of criteria to gauge warehouse performance. Based on these criteria, they can determine whether the warehouse is performing well.
