PII is built closely following the structure of the global innovation index GII (Global Innovation Index) published annually by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) and has been used by the Government in management and operation since 2017.

According to the Ministry of Science and Technology, PII has a wide and comprehensive scope on socio-economic development based on science, technology and innovation of localities. Therefore, the index set will be a tool for each province/city to examine in detail the output and input aspects, clearly identify strengths, weaknesses, potential factors and necessary conditions to promote socio-economic development based on science, technology and innovation.
