Abstract

The chapter explores the effects of public R&D on productivity and growth. We summarise the main stylised facts and show that our understanding of the benefits of public R&D is limited and that a broader approach is needed which takes account of a wider range of benefits from public R&D. Specifically, we explore these issues in the context of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) and Southern Europe as two EU ‘catching-up’ regions. We show that the links between science and industry in these regions are stronger than is commonly assumed, but that we need a better understanding of the nature of these links and their intensity.​
