Erhebung zur Bedeutung von Forschung und Entwicklung innerhalb der EU

The current wave of Innobarometer (2009) placed the focus on innovation spending (including the effects of the current economic downturn), the role of innovation in public procurement tenders, the effects of public policies and private initiatives to boost innovation, and other strategic trends. The reference period of the various activities surveyed was that between 2006 and 2008 (if the question concerned financial issues), or until the time of the survey (2009 April).
