New dataset released - update of product categories

On 1 March we have released a new SDI Classification and SDI Innovation Outlook dataset. The key enhancements alongside this new release was an update of product categories by: 

• Introduction of more granular and specific product types of education products and services, public transportation and railway products and services
• Merger of existing similar product categories
• Removal of ambiguity by limiting the use of 'miscellaneous' categories
