NOTAS: | "This year's edition offers a unique opportunity to measure the first effects of the economic crisis on the research and innovation landscape in Europe. It uses the most recent available data from Eurostat and other internationally recognised sources with data referring to 2011 for 12 indicators and 2010 for 9 indicators and to less recent years for only 3 indicators. Six indicators are derived from the recently published Community Innovation Survey 2010, which investigated the innovation activity of the European enterprises during the crisis years 2008-2010". |
