The project provides indicators to supplement official statistics in monitoring research and innovation activities and their outputs across all Member States, associated countries and other selected countries. It is the follow up of an ongoing study and it ensures the continuation of indicators currently used for analysis and monitoring of R&I systems. It also encompasses new indicators to reflect the role of R&I in the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals and will allow better understanding of the trends relating to R&I performance of the EU and its main competitors.
