The business enterprise expenditure on R&D in Germany's total manufacturing sector is projected to grow steadily from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 90,328 trillion USD PPP in 2024, it anticipates reaching 98,461 trillion USD PPP by 2028. This represents a consistent year-on-year increase of approximately 2.24%. Evaluated as a compound annual growth rate over the five-year span, this results in an average annual growth rate of about 2.24%. In 2023, the expenditures would have stood slightly below the 2024 value.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of digital transformation and sustainable manufacturing practices on R&D investments. Companies may increase their focus on these areas to maintain competitive advantages, potentially accelerating growth in R&D expenditure beyond current forecasts.
