Description

This report has been commissioned by the UK’s Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS) to assess the performance of the United Kingdom’s (UK) research base compared with seven other research-intensive countries (Canada, China, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the US), four other fast growing nations (Brazil, India, Russia and South Korea), and international benchmarks. Emerging research nations such as China, Brazil and India have been striving to emulate the performance of longstanding research-intensive countries such as the UK, Germany, France and the US. Within this context, this report tracks investment in, and performance of, the national research system in an international setting, combining a variety of indicators to present a multifaceted factual view of the UK’s comparative performance in research as well as data about the trends that may affect, or indeed are already affecting, its position.
