Few places have done more than Japan to define today’s
technological landscape. The laptops we all work from?
Toshiba was the first to produce them for a mass market.
The emoji you used in your last email? Also a Japanese
invention. In fact, according to a Forbes analysis, Japan is
home to almost 10% of the world’s most innovative
companies.
And yet Japan’s creative prowess is all too often overlooked,
with most people instead focusing on places like Silicon
Valley or Tel Aviv. As these few innovations show, that’s a
mistake – Japan has given the world far more than karaoke,
Pokémon and instant ramen noodles.
The Statistics
So what exactly is advanced technology? Spectacular
breakthroughs in creating new products certainly count but,
in nation-to-nation competition, new products rarely provide
as much of an edge as is generally believed. This is because
they can often be quickly copied by foreign competitors.
More important are breakthroughs in production
technologies. These often enable a nation powerfully to boost
its efficiency in long established products. An example is
Japan’s success in using robots to reduce costs in the car
industry.
