Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

Investment in scientific research is an important index for the development of science and technology enterprises. At the end of each year, the European Union publishes a report on global industrial scientific research investment to analyze the development of global scientific research. In the past 2022, China surpassed the European Union in all directions for the first time and ranked second in the world.

For technology companies, scientific research ability is the way to gain a foothold and the foundation of survival.

In recent years, the global hot industry news also tells us clearly that only by mastering the core technology can we not be controlled by others.

You can't do this without money. Therefore, more and more companies regard scientific research investment as an important indicator.

At the end of last year, the EU issued the 2022 EU Industrial R & D Investment scoreboard (The 2022 EU Industrial Research and Development Investment Scoreboard), which compares the performance of EU innovation-driven industries with their major global counterparts.

The report analyzes the 2500 companies that invested the most in R & D in 2020, with a total investment of 908.9 billion euros (6.6 trillion yuan), accounting for about 90 percent of the total investment.

The report focuses on the comparison between EU companies and their global counterparts in terms of the company's R & D investment, patent portfolio and other financial performance indicators. Therefore, through this report, we can get a glimpse of the research and development of Chinese enterprises.

China's investment in scientific research has soared, far surpassing the Japan-Europe report, which first ranks the countries with the largest proportion of scientific research investment in the world. The figures in parentheses show the number of companies from the same country on the scoreboard in 2021.

The distribution of enterprises on the list of global scientific research investment (countries / regions) can be found that China's performance far exceeds that of the European Union and Japan, ranking second in the world, both in terms of total enterprise volume and growth. Compared with last year, 81 Chinese companies were added to the list, an increase of 1/3. In contrast to China's rapid growth, the number of listed companies in Japan and the European Union has shrunk, by 60 and 40 respectively.

Changes in the share of companies on the list from 2012 to 2022 in terms of top R & D investment, the gap between China and the United States, Japan, Europe and other regions is widening. Even if you add up the companies on the list from all over Europe, China still ranks second in the world by a huge advantage.

The number of Chinese companies on the list continues to grow rapidly, in sharp contrast to investment from the European Union and Japan. This trend has not only continued this year, but also undergone qualitative changes. For the first time, China has surpassed the European Union in terms of both the number of companies and total R & D investment.

Changes in the distribution of global R & D investment share from 2012 to 2022 according to the trend of changes in R & D share of various countries since 2012, China and the United States have increased steadily, while the share of R & D investment in the European Union and Japan has gradually declined. The EU said in its report that it would "make greater efforts to bridge the gap in R & D investment with China and the United States." "

Global R & D investment in Top5, Huawei is on the list, according to the report, Huawei ranks fourth with 19 billion euros (137 billion yuan) in R & D, ahead of Apple, Samsung and other well-known companies.

In 2012, Huawei ranked 43rd in the R & D rankings. It has risen to fourth place in the past 10 years, which shows how much Huawei has invested in core technology.

Among the top 50 global R & D investment companies, Alibaba, Tencent and China Construction are also among them. It is worth noting that Ali's ranking jumped to 17th from 700 a decade ago, while Tencent also rose from 277th to 18th.

The report concludes that sectors with high R & D intensity, such as biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, software, technical hardware and health, are making rapid technological progress. In terms of transport and energy production, the conversion of fossil fuels is accelerating due to the emergence of new technologies. It can be predicted that the competition of global enterprises in these areas will continue in the future.

It is worth celebrating to overtake the European Union to become the second place in the world. However, in the face of the rapid development of the United States and the full catch-up of Europe, today, when scientific and technological innovation is surging out, China still has a lot to do.
