EU Industrial R&D Investment ScoreboardSince 2006, the European Commission has annually collected data from companies about the R&D activities already implemented and planned for the years to come. From this information, it selected 2,500 companiesaround the world which, thanks to their work, make up 90% of the enterprise-funded global R&D initiatives.
The drafting of the EU Industrial R&D Investment Scoreboard aims to:
- Analyze the factors that influence R&D investments
- Provide a benchmark tool for comparing companies, sectors and geographies
- Monitor and analyze emerging investment trends and patterns
- Raise public awareness of support for R&D investments
- Encourage companies to disclose information on their R&D investments.
From this research, 2,500 companies that invested the most in R&D during 2020 were selected, providing a snapshot of a particularly challenging year, in which the COVID-19 pandemic hit our society and the economy.
Among these companies, 401 are based in Europe, 779 in the US, 597 in China, 293 in Japan and 430 in the rest of the world.
Due to the pandemic in 2020, companies operating in the health and ICT sectorsaw an increase in funds dedicated to R&D; on the other hand, sectors such as the automotive and aerospace ones have seen their reduction.
At the same time, the Scoreboard also shows how Europe keeps devoting great efforts to the development of green technologies for energy-intensive industries.
