Bus/Financial - Journalism | | English term or phrase: inputs and outputs | Artikel aus dem Economist. Wie würdet ihr hier "inputs (into the innovation process)" und "outputs (of the innovation process)" übersetzen?
The EU has an official target to raise government R&D spending to 3% of GDP and there is much angst over patents—an obsession that Japanese planners share. The latest edition of “Science, Technology and Innovation in Europe”, an annual report by Eurostat, the statistical arm of the European Commission, reveals exactly what is wrong. It is chock full of figures, broken down by region and industry, of research spending, patents filed, scientists employed and other important-sounding variables. ***The problem is that these are all inputs into the innovation process, not outputs***. There is only a cursory discussion of venture capital and no attention paid at all to entrepreneurship—the most powerful way to turn ideas into valuable products and services. |
