Conversely, some countries experienced contractions, indicating potential structural challenges or shifts in R&D focus.
Future trends to watch include advancements in technology such as AI and IoT, which could drive R&D in information and communication services. Emerging markets might see increased investments due to digital transformation efforts, while established players may focus on specializing and diversifying their R&D to maintain competitive advantages. Close attention should also be paid to geopolitical and economic shifts that may influence R&D allocations across different regions.
