National Research and Innovation Plan

On 3 December 2002 the Austrian Council approved the National Research and Innovation Plan (NaFIP). NaFIP provides an overview of key R&D indicators and the institutional system in Austria in an international comparison. On this basis RTI policy proposals were formulated for achieving the national spending target of 2.5% of GDP. They included proposals for structural change to the individual R&D performance sectors as well as proposals for the reorganisation of the funding landscape. Furthermore, scenarios for the use of public and private sector funding were developed. You can download the complete text of the National Research and Innovation Plan here (only German).
