AI Readiness Index · Q2 2026

The Index, market by market.

One page for each of 23 Asia-Pacific markets, and a free 20-page dossier for 22 of them. Each page shows the average public-evidence score of the market's organisations. Scored markets also show a context score and their most visible organisations. Markets are listed A to Z.

23 markets, one method

1,000 organisations published by name from 5,820 candidates screened, across 23 markets and six sectors. Readiness is the market context score. Visibility is the average public-evidence score of the organisations scored there.

Macau is reported as context and carries no benchmark block, so it has no readiness score and no dossier. Everything else is scored on the same five signals and the same evidence gate. No market reached evidence grade A this cycle.
