Summary/Abstract: In the study, we examine Hungarian innovation performance with different index-numbers in international comparison. These metrics are as follows: the number of patents per million inhabitants and one researcher and developer; the number of international publications per million inhabitants and per researcher; the proportion of innovative companies; Global Innovation Index; Bloomberg Innovation Index; Innovation Union Scoreboard; Global Talent Competitiveness Index; Global Competitiveness Index. In the case of education science, we also look at two innovation performance indicators: the number of international publications of Hungarian education science per million inhabitants and per researcher; and the innovation data for OECD education for Hungary. Based on the analysis, it was found that a) most of the innovation indicators show the deterioration or possibly stagnation of Hungarian innovation performance; b) the domestic features of measurable innovation in education are rather controversial.
