- Summary:
- This OECD report on the effects of globalization on business research and development contains data on such topics as the offshoring of R&D, foreign direct investment (FDI) and the growing importance of science and technology research on an international scale. Based upon research presented at the 2005 OECD Forum on the Internationalisation of R&D, this reference provides international investors, policymakers and executives with a balanced analysis of both the benefits (cost efficiency, learning potential) and challenges (national job market losses) of these trends. This report concludes with a summary of policy implications for technical and scientific innovation, and encourages internationalization practices as a whole.
