On 19th May 2011 Quantum software was awarded the Innovation Certificate which proves that the company was among the 500 most innovative companies in Poland in 2009, being ranked 84th. Studies over innovativeness of Polish companies have been conducted since 2005 by MSN Scientific Network (ISN MSN) and the Institute of Economics of the Polish Academy of Science (INE PAN). The methodology for measuring innovativeness applied by these institutions takes into consideration international OECD standards, while companies are assessed using the 5A system. The evaluation process covers the following areas:
- market innovativeness
- process innovativeness
- expenditure on innovative activity
- own patents
- European contracts
As a result of availability of financial data, the need to prepare it and time required to draft a report in a printed version, the TOP500 LIST presenting information for 2009 was issued in May 2011. The “TOP500 List of the Most Innovative Companies in Poland” is published every year in the “Report on Innovativeness of Polish Economy”. More information on the innovativeness program of Polish companies can be found on the websites of INE PAN (Institute of Economics of the Polish Academy of Science).
For Quantum, this certificate is an important confirmation of reasonableness of its strategy, as well as an innovative approach to development of products and services. We believe it will also motivate us to introduce a number of further innovations which will be advantageous for customers in all the countries where the offer of Quantum software is available.
