    Description:

    This study uses the results of the 1991 Survey of Research and Development in Canadian Industry to examine exchanges of funds between Canadian firms for R & D purposes. Through such exchanges of funds, Canadian companies form alliances that collectively constitute a network that fosters exchanges of knowledge. These networks are widely dispersed, covering the great majority of industrial activities.

    Four case studies are presented. They reveal that different industries pursue different alliance strategies. R & D alliances in the information technology, business services, oil, and pulp and paper sectors are examined. The alliance strategies are diverse, encompassing vertical integration of large related firms, a collection of small companies providing services to all sectors, and industry-specific networks in which firms have their R & D performed by research institutes. Understanding R & D alliances helps shed some light on the intricacy of the national innovation system concept.

  • Articles and reports: 63F0002X1997012
    Description:

    Canada has a service economy and research and development (R&D) in Canada is mainly a service sector activity. This paper examines the sectoral distribution of expenditure on R&D performance, with emphasis on the business sector in Canada and with international comparisons. The principal observation is the key role played by service industry firms in the performing and commissioning of R&D.

    Description:

    Statistics Canada is engaged in the "Information System for Science and Technology Project" to develop useful indicators of activity and a framework to tie them together into a coherent picture of science and technology (S&T) in Canada. The working papers series is used to publish results of the different initiatives conducted within this project. The data are related to the activities, linkages and outcomes of S&T. Several key areas are covered such as: innovation, technology diffusion, human resources in S&T and interrelations between different actors involved in S&T. This series also presents data tabulations taken from regular surveys on research and development (R&D) and S&T and made possible by the project.
