The
OECD Science, Technology and Industry Outlook reviews key trends in STI policies and performance in OECD countries and major emerging economies. It is published every two years and draws on a unique international policy survey conducted by the OECD - with more than 45 countries involved in 2014 - and the latest OECD work on STI policy analysis and measurement. Following an overview of the recent STI global landscape, key current policy issues are discussed across a series of thematic policy profiles. Country profiles report the STI performance of individual countries and the most recent national policy developments.
The
STI Outlook gathers a number of science and innovation-related indicators which raw data are drawn from OECD official databases and equivalent in international organisations (e.g. Eurostat, International Monetary Fund, UNESCO Institute for Statistics, World Bank etc.), as well as from international sources of relevance. The statistical material of the
STI Outlook is derivated from the
Innovation Policy Platform (IPP) jointly developed by the OECD and the World Bank to support policy analysis in the field of science, technology and innovation and in particular its statistical component (IPP.Stat).
