The spent USD 22 3 million PPP on biotechnology R&D, approximately 7.6 of total US Business Enterprise R&D (BERD). This accounts for 66 of the total biotechnology R&D expenditures by firms in the 25 countries for which data are available. Biotechnology BERD as a share of total BERD is an indicator of country s research focus on biotechnology. On average, biotechnology BERD accounted for 6 of total BERD. spends the most as a percentage of BERD (15.1). An alternative measure of a research focus on biotechnology is the biotechnology R&D intensity, defined as the share of biotechnology R&D expenditures out of the total value added of the industry sector. The average biotechnology R&D intensity is.126 for the 25 countries for which data are available. 2 Key Biotechnology Indicators OECD 211

Biotechnology firms that provide services to other firms or which have no products on the market are assigned to the services sector. These firms either sell services, for instance platform technologies such as genetic sequencing, or primarily conduct R&D with the goal of developing future marketable goods such as new pharmaceuticals or plant varieties The share of all biotechnology R&D that is performed in the services sector ranges from 5.6 in to 98 in, with an average of 48.5 for the 19 reporting countries. Although the majority of biotechnology firms have less than 5 employees, most biotechnology R&D is performed by firms with over 5 employees. The average spent by small biotechnology firms is 31. In the, approximately 72 of all biotechnology R&D was performed by biotechnology R&D firms with over 25 employees. Key Biotechnology Indicators OECD 211 3

Public biotechnology R&D has been defined as the sum of government and higher education biotechnology R&D. The highest level of public sector expenditures on biotechnology R&D is found in, followed by and. The share of public biotechnology R&D in total public R&D spending provides an indicator of the importance governments place on biotechnology R&D.

Biotechnology has applications in many fields, including health (human and animal), agriculture, food and beverages processing, natural resources, environment, industrial processing, and bioinformatics. In addition, an other category mostly covers platform biotechnologies and minor applications that are not included in the seven main categories. For all countries combined, 51 of firms are active in health, followed by 12 of firms active in agriculture. Health applications also dominate biotechnology R&D. Approximately 66 of all estimated biotechnology R&D expenditures in the nine countries are for health applications, followed by 13 for industrial processing. Key Biotechnology Indicators OECD 211 5

10 Notes KBI 11. Share of countries in biotechnology patents filed under PCT Data relate to patent applications filed under the PCT, at international phase, designating the European Patent Office (EPO). Patent counts are based on the priority date, the inventor s country of residence and fractional counts. KBI 12. Revealed technological advantage in biotechnologies Data relate to patent applications filed under the Patent Co-operation Treaty (PCT), at international phase, published by the WIPO. Patent counts are based on the priority date, the inventor s country of residence and fractional counts. The revealed technological advantage index is calculated as the share of country in biotechnology patents relative to the share of country in total patents. Only countries with more than 5 patents over the periods are included in the figure. Cyprus: The following note is included at the request of Turkey: The information in this document with reference to «Cyprus» relates to the southern part of the Island. There is no single authority representing both Turkish and Greek Cypriot people on the Island. Turkey recognizes the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC). Until a lasting and equitable solution is found within the context of the United Nations, Turkey shall preserve its position concerning the «Cyprus issue». The following note is included at the request of all the European Union Member States of the OECD and the European Commission: The Republic of Cyprus is recognized by all members of the United Nations with the exception of Turkey. The information in this document relates to the area under the effective control of the Government of the Republic of Cyprus.
