Edoardo Giglio, a leading expert in cyber and strategic risk management, delves into the transformative power of innovation strategies in shaping the modern geopolitical landscape. As traditional military might gives way to technological prowess, this book reveals how countries can compete and collaborate within the global innovation ecosystem. Through detailed case studies, Giglio explores the innovation strategies of more than a dozen countries, examining their successes and failures. From Israel’s tech-driven defense mechanisms to Ukraine’s innovative responses amidst conflict, these examples illustrate how nations leverage technology for geopolitical influence. The book also highlights the dire consequences for countries that remain outside this ecosystem, using North Korea and certain African nations as cautionary tales.
