OECD Science, Technology and Innovation Outlook 2016
The fully revamped and re-titled OECD Science, Technology and Innovation Outlook is a biennial publication that aims to inform policy makers and analysts on recent and future changes in global science, technology and innovation (STI) patterns and their potential implications on and for national and international STI policies. Based on the most recent data available, the report provides comparative analysis of new policies and instruments being used in OECD countries and a number of major emerging economies (including Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, the Russian Federation and South Africa) to boost the contribution of science and innovation to growth and to global and social challenges. In this edition, detailed country and policy profiles are available on line.
Service innovation and non-technological innovation
In the face of lagging productivity and job creation, many OECD governments are looking for new sources of growth and have recognised the importance of services in this regard. Services already account for around 70% of gross domestic product (GDP) and most employment across the OECD. Services also contribute half or more of all the value added in total exports (OECD, 2013).
