What is holding us back?
Slowdown in productivity growth
Economic growth based on external debt
Inefficient institutions, excessive regulation and corruption
Large internal debt and incomplete transport infrastructure
Inefficient R&D and innovation support
Reforms are needed in order to just maintain our current position

Worst-case ScenarioInstitutions
the inefficiency and corruption of the public sector increases burdening the private sector, particularly entrepreneurs
public services will become more expensive, their quality, however, does not go up
Infrastructurethe benefits arising from the advantageous geographic position of the Czech Republic in Europe are slowly disappearing
Regional imbalances are rising
Innovationthe role of the CR is being reduced to that of a passive supplier to other countries, slowing economic growth and sustainable development
falling standards in Czech education are starting to slow the economy and the competitiveness of the Czech workforce

Innovation Pillar
Vision: Innovation as a source of future prosperity for the Czech RepublicStatus quo
Existing sources of growth (e.g. FDI) are gradually being depleted
Innovation by companies mostly takes place outside of the Czech Republic
Domestic innovation is being hindered by the absence of non-technical skills, a low level of cooperation with companies (innovations take place in companies, not in state research institutions or academia)
The system of evaluation and financing of R&D does not support excellence
ToolsIdentification of key technological areas in the Czech Republic on the basis of foresight – prioritising support for R&D&I
Institutional reform of the innovation system – clear definition of roles+ strong central authority
Changes in the evaluation of R&D institutions and programs impacting funding – support for excellence
