R&D magazine produces an annual Study on global R&D funding forecast that is full of great information. In 2010 R&D spending is going to exceed $1.1T globally (flat from 2008). US continues to lead at almost 35% of the global R&D budgets, but the share seems to be flat to declining. Finland and Sweden lead the world in number of scientists/engineers per million people.
Almost 75% of the organizations have changed R&D plans because of the recession and a similar fraction has actually reduced focus on R&D.
Lots of interesting data. Check it out...
