Do we have the right set of indicators to measure the outcomes and impacts of innovation? To what questions about the impacts of R&D and innovation would policy makers like the data to give an answer? What extra insights on innovation do we gain by linking different surveys and datasets? This workshop to be held in Paris will address these and other questions and discuss the implications for future OECD work in this area.

This conference shed light on a crucial issue concerning the phenomenon of globalisation and its impacts upon the development of the “knowledge economy”: the link between innovation, structural change and productivity growth amid the intensification of cross-border economic linkages. It discussed the scope for public policy in implementing a national innovation and growth strategy in the global economy, and offered guidance for future work in this domain, in particular by the OECD Committee on Industry, Innovation and Entrepreneurship (CIIE).
