Research and development (R&D) in 2008 : Internationalisation Swiss R&D strengthens its international ties

Swiss R&D strengthens its international ties

Neuchâtel, 17.05.2011 (FSO) - In an international comparison, Swiss companies spent substantial sums on their research and development (R&D) activities in 2008. This investment was not only marked in Switzerland, but also in foreign affiliates. These expenditures abroad do not, however, call into question the dynamism of R&D in Switzerland. The marked internationalisation of Swiss R&D, the intensification of international exchanges and the growing participation of the Swiss federal government in international research projects are the key findings of a new analysis by the Federal Statistical Office (FSO).
