The paper presents analysis of the effectiveness of selected states' innovation policies: the USA, the EU and the Republic of Slovenia, based on our own model for measuring the effectiveness of innovation policy. The model includes two components on the input side (financial investments in education, research and development, and human resources) as potential for research and development. It also includes two components on the output side, namely production (scientific publications and intellectual property protection) as an intermediate in the innovation process with no economic value and, finally, the economic impact consisting of revenues generated in the innovation process. The method is used to search for the link between investment in the research and development process and its economic impact. This model seeks to give additional insight into the effectiveness of innovation policy and the analysis of the countries involved. Based on the findings of the model, Slovenian research policy is evaluated.
