Neaman Institute is pleased to present the fifth edition of the ” Science, Technology and Innovation Indicators in Israel: An International Comparison.”.
This publication contains many key figures for Israel regarding science and technology input and output, and covers more than a decade of international comparisons, as well as many other indices. This information can contribute to the understanding of the comprehensive picture of Israeli R&D, which is the product of policies set by the government, the higher education institutes and the business sector. It can also shed light on the impact these policies have on the Israeli economy.
One of the key objectives of Israeli science and technology policy is to promote a balanced R&D system and to ensure that the R&D and innovation orientations contribute to Israel’s society and economy.
In this edition, we have changed the report’s structure, such that it presents inputs and outputs for each segment (segmented by topic), which may give a clearer and more comprehensive picture of how each sector functions over time. In addition, new chapters have been added: Gender Inequality and Spatial Distribution, International Integrated Indexes, and International Indexes.
We hope this publication will provide useful insights on Israel’s national and international policies, and will contribute to the correct comprehension of the current status of Israeli science, technology and innovation.
