Definitions |
Emerging economies (EME) are
defined as countries with a per-capita income not exceeding USD
20.000 in 2017.
Manufacturing industries are defined
in terms of their output, comprising all of the product categories of Sections 5 – 8 (minus Division 68)

This indicator shows the technology composition of a country's manufactured
exports. |
Indicator values are calculated as the
shares (in %) of high and medium-tech products, respectively, in a country's
manufactured exports. |
Our classification of high and
medium-tech products uses a categorization of products by
technology level employed by UNIDO (covering about 90% of the
total value of EME manufactured exports). |
