Abstract

This report provides an update of the current state of the biotechnology industry based on primarily official statistical sources. As biotechnology becomes increasingly viewed as a strategic sector, the need for reliable biotechnology statistics from which informed policy decisions can be made grows. This report addresses that need by compiling statistics on biotechnology both on a country-by-country basis and to a limited degree across countries. Also included is a brief overview of some of the important biotechnology policies where the information is publicly available.This work has benefited from the OECD working with member countries and observer countries to develop methodological tools for measuring biotechnology. While some of this work is provisional, will change as experience in the field is gained and should not be viewed as the definitive reference, the data contained in this report represents a significant step forward from only a few years ago when only a few OECD ... Panorama des statistiques des biotechnologies dans quelques pays choisis Le présent rapport fait le point sur l’état actuel du secteur des biotechnologies en se fondant principalement sur des sources statistiques officielles. L’émergence des biotechnologies comme secteur stratégique renforce le besoin de disposer de statistiques fiables susceptibles d’éclairer les choix publics dans ce domaine. C’est dans cette optique que sont réunies dans ce rapport des statistiques nationales relatives à ce secteur et, bien que moins nombreuses, des comparaisons internationales. Y sont en outre présentées quelques-unes des principales politiques biotechnologiques pour lesquelles l’information est accessible librement.Ce travail a pu être réalisé grâce aux activités de développement d’outils méthodologiques de mesure des biotechnologies menées par l’OCDE en collaboration avec les pays membres et les pays observateurs. Bien qu’une partie des travaux présentés soit provisoire, appelée à évoluer à mesure que s’accumuleront les expériences dans ce domaine et, par ...
