The collection and analysis of data on public biotechnology R&D expenditure and funding is highly relevant to policy decisions. The aim of these guidelines is to propose a harmonised approach for the collection and analysis of biotechnology R&D statistics in the government and higher education sectors.

Governments around the world have invested heavily in nanotechnology R&D, and companies are also becoming increasingly engaged. Despite this promise, investments and company involvement in nanotechnology developments are still poorly monitored. The objective of this paper is to provide a comprehensive overview of developments through a systematic and critical analysis of available indicators and statistics.

This working paper analyses results of a business survey on the licensing-out of patents. The goal was to investigate the intensity of licensing to affiliated and non-affiliated companies, its evolution, the characteristics, motivations and obstacles met by companies licensing or willing to license.

This database presents patent data linked to regions according to the addresses of the applicants and inventors. The data have been regionalised at a very detailed level so that over 2000 regions are covered across OECD countries. REGPAT allows patent data to be used in connection with other regional data, thus providing researchers with the means to develop a rich set of new indicators and undertake a broad range of analyses to address the regional dimension of innovation.

Human resources are key in the creation and diffusion of innovation, and doctorate holders are not only the most qualified in terms of educational attainment, but also those who are specifically trained to conduct research. But not much is known about their paths on the labour market. This is why the OECD launched a project with the UNESCO Institute for Statistics and Eurostat to develop internationally comparable indicators on the careers and mobility of doctorate holders. This working paper presents the project's three main technical components.

This report presents various patent indicators to reflect recent trends in innovative activity across a wide range of OECD and non-OECD countries, with seven main sections: triadic patent families; patenting at national, regional and international level; patenting in selected technology areas; patents by institutional sectors; international cooperation in inventive activities; science linkages in technology.

Just published, this book draws from the OECD "Blue Sky II" Forum and presents policy needs, measurement issues and some of the challenges in developing indicators for cross-cutting and emerging topics in science, technology and innovation. It shares ideas to exploit existing data and develop new measurement frameworks. The debate is intended to guide future development of STI indicators at the OECD and beyond.
