Launch of the Technology and Innovation Report 2018

15 May 2018

Issues of science, technology and innovation remain endemic to development and furthering our understanding on these issues is a core challenge for policy research.

Deepening its commitment to this goal, the UNCTAD launched a new flagship report series, the Technology and Innovation Report (TIR) in May 2010.

The series seeks to address issues in science, technology and innovation that are topical and important for developing countries in a comprehensive way with an emphasis on policy relevant analysis and conclusions.

The Report is under embargo until
5 p.m. GMT on 15 May 2018
