Rebalancing of EU RDI funding programmes Asia and US federal R&D funds mainly go to applied Development whereas Europe has the highest share of Basic Research Funding Development Applied FP7 Basic 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 58% 44% 48% 46% 32% 28% 33% 19% 45% CIP - 6% EIT - 2% FP7 92% 30 20 10 0 32% 11% 24% 24% 22% 36% China Korea US Japan Sum of Member States EU Note : The selection of the 12 member states has been done dependant on the size and the availability of data. The result should not differ much when the other 15 countries are added since the biggest R&D budgets are taken into account. Note : For all countries are displayed the latest figures available.
