15. Onderliggende innovatie gegevens European Innovation Scoreboard 2007 – Current performance The data used in this report is the most recent available from the sources shown in Annex C as on 18 October 2007. For the EU the average value shown is that of the EU27, except, due to missing data for EU27 respectively EU25, EU25 for indicators 1.3, 3.5, 5.2 and 5.3 and EU15 for indicator 3.4. For the indicators based on CIS-4 data, EU averages are not available from Eurostat. The EU averages for indicators 2.4, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.6, 4.3 and 4.4 are weighted estimates based on CIS-4 country data available from Eurostat. The EU averages for these CIS indicators are thus not official Eurostat estimates.
