2018 Global R&D Funding Forecast

Our 2018 forecast is a combination of the industrial, government and academic investments by the R&D spending countries of the world. The investments made by these countries are largely influenced by value and growth of their gross domestic product (GDP). We base our R&D forecasts for each country on economic forecasts and science and technology (S&T) survey data by the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the World Bank, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), and the U. S. Central Intelligence Agency, along with multiple reader surveys performed by the editors of R&D Magazine. Economic data are combined with published relationships of each country’s science and technology efforts to create the R&D forecasts.

2019 Global R&D Funding Forecast

The U.S. is expected to invest $581.0 billion in R&D in 2019, an increase of 2.7 % over the $565.8 billion invested in 2018. A big part of the 2019 increase comes from a large increase in federal research funding for the FY2019 budget, which was the highest funding increase since 2009.

Expanded format for 2020 + special mid-year update on how COVID-19 was disrupting 2020.

2021 Global R&D Funding Forecast

The continuing large annual increases in Chinese R&D investments (non-stop for more than 20 years) and the inability of the U.S. to match those increases results in a forecast of China outspending the U.S. (for the very first time) in R&D ($622 billion for China vs $599 billion for the U.S.) in 2021. This nearly 4% difference can be partially explained by a 2% improvement in China’s annual GDP compared to a 4% decline in U.S. annual GDP for 2020.

2022 Global R&D Funding Forecast

For 2022 and the 63rd consecutive year, the editors of R&D World are focusing on the annual global variants of R&D investments for the upcoming calendar year. In this annual report, we document the changing R&D investments in academia, government and industrial organizations for the top 116 R&D investing countries in the world. We look at the reasons for these changes, their effects on current and future spending, and the net technological results. For 2022, R&D World’s editors forecast that $2.476 trillion will be invested globally in R&D efforts, an increase of 5.43% over the $2.348 trillion that was spent in calendar 2021. More than 80% (81.6% or $104 billion) of that 2022 R&D spending increase can be accounted for by the annual increases in the Top Ten R&D spending countries (U. S. to Brazil).

2024 Global R&D Funding Forecast

R&D is the primary driver of countries’ growth. For 2024, the 64th year, the editors of R&D World are looking not only at the level of R&D investment for the coming year but also at investment productivity — who is benefiting and by how much. This annual report documents the changing R&D investments in academia, government, and industrial organizations for the top R&D investing countries. While we look at their levels, we focus on their productivity.
