The Science, Technology and Industry (STI) Scoreboard 2003 brings together the latest internationally comparable data on trends in the knowledge-based economy. It is the sixth edition of a series spanning a decade and brings together over 200 indicators, many of them new to this edition.

The indicators cover four key areas, notably the creation and diffusion of knowledge; the information society; economic globalisation; and productivity and economic structure. As in previous editions, the STI Scoreboard combines the core OECD indicators on research and development, human resources in science and technology, the spread of information technology in OECD economies; the role of multinational enterprises; and the structure of OECD economies.
