Indicator detail
8.2.4 Expenditure on innovations in enterprises
Metadata
| Relevance/rationale of the indicator (resp. why the indicator was chosen to measure the target and how it is suitable for these purposes) | The high costs and risks associated with the introduction of innovations mean that businesses often invest less funds in innovation than might be socially desirable. For this reason, state governments are trying to build the most appropriate environment characterized by stable macroeconomic policy, favorable and transparent legislation, which would stimulate businesses to higher innovation activity and higher investments in their product and process innovations. |
| Target value of the indicator and its evaluation | |
| Definition | Total innovation costs related to innovations in the monitored period include: in-house research and development; purchase of research and development services; acquisition of apparatus, machinery, equipment, software and buildings (advanced machinery, computer hardware specially purchased for the introduction of new or significantly improved products and/or processes); acquisition of other external knowledge (purchase of patent rights and unpatented inventions, licenses, know-how, trademarks, software and other forms of knowledge from other entities for the purpose of using them in corporate innovation) and since 2012 the costs of other innovation activities (design, training , bringing innovations to the market, etc.) related to the technical innovations carried out. Data on innovations are obtained based on a statistical survey that fully respects methodological principles of the European Union (EU) and of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) stated in the Oslo Manual (OECD, 2018) and in the Regulation (EU) 2019/2152 of the European Parliament and of the Council. The statistical survey population includes reporting units of the business enterprise sector with 10+ employees in selected key economic activities according to the Classification of Economic Activities (CZ-NACE).
