In 2024, Germany's government expenditure on R&D is forecasted at 0.47% of GDP, with a gradual increase to 0.49% by 2028. This suggests a slowly increasing commitment to R&D investment over the coming years. In 2023, the actual expenditure was slightly lower at approximately 0.46% of GDP.
The year-on-year percentage growth from 2024 to 2028 indicates a relatively modest trend with minor increments, reflecting stability in funding priorities for innovation and research.
Future trends to watch for:
- Policy changes influencing governmental allocations to R&D.
- The impact of economic conditions on R&D budgets.
- R&D investment in emerging technologies and sectors.
