"Welcome to the Knowledge Assessment Methodology 2006 (KAM)! The KAM is an interactive benchmarking tool to help countries identify the challenges and opportunities they face in making the transition to the knowledge-based economy.
The KAM consists of 80 structural and qualitative variables to measure countries' performance on the four Knowledge Economy (KE) pillars: Economic Incentive and Institutional Regime, Education, Innovation, and Information & Communications Technology. Each variable is normalized on a scale of zero to ten relative to other countries in the comparison group. The KAM data also allows to derive country’s overall Knowledge Economy Index (KEI) and Knowledge Index (KI). See the User Guide for more information."
