1 May 7, 2014 University Research Funding: The United States is Behind and Falling Dr. Robert D. Atkinson, President The Information Technology and Innovation Foundation
2 The Information Technology and Innovation Foundation (ITIF) is a Washington, D.C.-based think tank at the cutting edge of designing innovation policies and exploring how innovation will create new opportunities to boost economic growth and improve quality of life. ITIF focuses on: Innovation verticals : energy, life sciences, telecom, manufacturing, and Internet and IT transformation Innovation horizontals : trade, tax, talent, and tech policy Innovation economics as an alternative to mainstream economics
3 Headlines Federally-funded university-based research plays an increasingly vital role in the U.S. innovation system. But, as a share of GDP, both growth in and actual government funding and business funding for university research falls notably below the OECD country average. 3
4 Today s Presentation 1 Why Does S&T-Based Innovation Matter? 2 Trends in R&D Funding for Universities 3 Effects of Future R&D Cuts 4
5 Why S&T-based Innovation is Critical to Growth The societal rates of return to R&D are at least twice private returns. The private return to R&D is 7% while the societal RoR is 30% suggesting that the optimal level of R&D investment in the US economy is between two to four times larger than the total current level of private investment. (Jones and Williams, 2000) Every 1% increase in investment in research increased productivity by 0.23%. (Coe and Helpman, 1995) At least two-thirds of increase in per-capita GDP is attributable to innovation.
