This paper asks whether research and development (R&D) drives the level of competitiveness required to successfully enter export markets and whether, in turn, participation in export markets increases R&D expenditures. Canadian non-exporters that subsequently entered export markets in the first decade of the 2000s are found to be not only larger and more productive, as has been reported for previous decades, but also more likely to have invested in R&D. Both extramural R&D expenditures (purchased from domestic and foreign suppliers) and intramural R&D expenditures (performed in-house) increase the ability of firms to penetrate export markets. Exporting also has a significant impact on subsequent R&D expenditures; exporters are more likely to start investing in R&D. Firms that began exporting increased the intensity of extramural R&D expenditures in the year in which exporting occurred.

The information in this document is intended primarily to be used by scientific and technological (S&T) policy makers, both federal and provincial, largely as a basis for inter-provincial and inter-sectoral comparisons. The statistics are aggregates of the provincial government and provincial research organization science surveys conducted by Statistics Canada under contract with the provinces, and cover the period 1996/1997 to 2004/2005.
Release date: 2006-07-13 - 3. Biotechnology scientific activities in federal government departments and agencies, 2004/2005 ArchivedStats in brief: 88-001-X20060029114Description:
Data on science and technology (S&T) expenditures and full-time equivalent allocated to biotechnology for the fiscal year 2004/2005 were collected from selected federal departments and agencies. Survey results contribute to the work of the Canadian Biotechnology Strategy. The S&T data collected for biotechnology are composed of expenditures on research and development (R&D) and related scientific activities (RSA) for both intramural and extramural performers and also the full-time equivalent associated with these activities.

Release date: 2005-05-11 - 5. Research and Development in a Service Economy ArchivedArticles and reports: 63F0002X1997012Description:
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.
Release date: 1998-11-20 - Articles and reports: 88F0006X1998010Description:
Knowledge flows in Canada as measured by bibliometrics, by Benoît Godin, Yves Gingras and Louis Davignon, uses the database developed, with Statistics Canada support, by the Observatoire des Sciences et des Technologies. It develops statistical indicators of Canadian production and knowledge flow in the natural sciences and engineering.
