Resumen

"This study examines how innovation resources affect the management of sustainable development across countries and determines the strength and direction of the influence of innovations and innovation resources on the results of the aggregate Sustainable Development Index of countries. Using the Sustainable Development Report 2024, which provides data on countries’ performance in achieving each of the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG Index), correlation-regression and variance analysis methods were applied to construct models that estimate the dependency of the aggregate Sustainable Development Index (SDI) on the outcomes of Goal 9 — Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure — for the year 2023, as well as using cumulative data over the 24-year period from 2000 to 2023. Drawing on data from the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) and the World Bank, the analysis examined the relationship between the composite SDI and the performance in SDG 9. The regression model for 2023 accounts for approximately 72% of the variance in SDI scores. Additional models based on patent applications and R&D expenditure explain 62% and 46.9% of the variance, respectively. These results suggest that intellectual and human resources in innovation exert a stronger influence on sustainable development outcomes than financial investment alone. © (2025), (Universidad Bernardo O'Higgins - Instituto Geográfico Militar).
