An R&D Roundtable

Author

  • Samuel Kortum

Abstract

This manuscript reports on the proceedings of an R&D Roundtable that took place at the National Bureau of Economic Research in the summer of 1999. Zvi Griliches envisioned the Roundtable as a chance to discuss the agenda for economic research on R&D over the next 20 years. Daron Acemoglu, Philippe Aghion, Samuel Kortum, Jacques Mairesse, and Mark Schankerman led the discussion. The Roundtable acquired a certain poignancy as it took place just four months before Zvi died.
