Since 2020, OECD countries have spent an average of 2.7% of their GDP on R&D.
Israel stands out globally—not only for leading in R&D intensity, but also for having the highest number of high-tech startups per capita.
Also seeing among the highest R&D to GDP are South Korea, Taiwan, and Sweden.
In Taiwan, corporate R&D investment rose by 3.7% in 2023, a slowdown compared to the 8.8% annual average over the previous five years—largely fueled by the semiconductor sector.
