Global spending on Research and Development (R&D) reached almost $1.7 Trillion US Dollars. Only about 10 countries account for 80% of that spending.

It displays annual public and private R&D spending per capita in US Dollars as well as the number of available researchers per million inhabitants for each of the included countries.
