| contents | Industrial R&D Investment: A Comparative Analysis of the Top Eu and non-Eu Companies Based on the Eu 2004 R&D Scoreboard Constantin Ciupagea Pietro Moncada-Paternò-Castello Economía y Finanzas EU Scoreboard Concentration Industrial R&D This paper presents the main results from the 2004 EU Industrial R&DInvestment Scoreboard, which lists the top 500 EU companies and thetop 500 non-EU companies ranked by their R&D investment. After a shortdescription of the definitions and objectives of the exercise, its content andmain findings are shown together with results from other analyses performedwithin The European Common Directorate General, Joint Research (JRC) Seville, showing the impact of the degree of concentration at the companyslevel on the overall industrial R&D stance. There seems to be a correlationbetween R&D intensity growth and net sales growth. Despite a competitivetotal amount of R&D investment, the average overall R&D intensity of thesampled European Union companies is much smaller than for their non-EUcounterparts. This is related to a smaller proportion of output from sectorswith high intrinsic R&D intensity, which is particularly noticeable in IT Hardwareand Software and Computer Services. Although R&D investment amounts arecomparable for the biggest firms, the share of R&D performers at the middleand the bottom of the EU-500 Scoreboard is much smaller in the EU than inthe non-EU. The analysis indicates that national, regional and sectoral patternsdeviate considerably from the overall picture of the EU. An entire section of thepaper is dedicated to an inter-sector comparison of R&D-related indicators.The issue of concentration of R&D investment among top companies investing in research is investigated in more detail, in large companies, by sector ofactivity and by location. It is also proved that the sample of top R&D investingcompanies is statistically characterised by heteroscedasticity. 2006 artículo científico 1576-0162 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=86601505 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=866 REM.
