Long abstract
OECD Science, Technology and Industry Scoreboard 2007
Published every two years, the Science, Technology and Industry (STI) Scoreboard explores recent developments in matters relating to science, technology, globalisation and industrial performance of OECD countries and now also major non-OECD countries (notably Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa). The Scoreboard brings together over 200 figures, many of which are new to this eighth edition, to help examine emerging policy issues including: the international mobility of researchers and scientists, the growth of the information economy, innovation by regions and industries, innovation strategies by companies, the internationalisation of research, the changing role of multinational enterprises, and new patterns in trade competitiveness and productivity. By providing a wide array of indicators for policy analysis, the STI Scoreboard has become a widely used reference which combines statistical rigour with easy access and readability. |
