In 2005, the European Commission initiated a study to analyse the R&D activities of various service providers in Europe quantitatively and qualitatively. The aim of this study is to assess the work they have carried out within national and European research and innovation programmes and to identify promising areas for future research activities. The RENESER study, conducted by Dialogic, presents the results of the investigation into REsearch and development NEeds for business-related SERvices. The focus is on:
  • Possible lack of investments by individual European service providers in R&D
  • The extent to which public funding of R&D meets the R&D needs of the relevant service providers
