- Title
Europe's research activity lags behind its competitors'.
- Abstract
The article discusses the stagnation of investment in research and development (R&D) in Europe. According to reports by the European Commission (EC) called the "2008 Innovation Scoreboard" and "2008 Science, Technology and Competitiveness," the intensity of Europe's research, which is the percentage of its gross domestic product (GDP) that is spent on R&D, declined between 2000 and 2006. Poor investment by business is singled out as the cause.
