Definition of research organisation
A research and knowledge dissemination organisation is a public or private entity whose main objective is independent research, experimental development or dissemination of the results of R&D activities, for example through training or publications.
If the organisation also engages in economic activities, separate accounts must be kept of its funding, costs and income. Companies exercising decisive influence, for example as shareholders or members, must not have a privileged right over the results achieved.
Publication search
Through our publication search, you can find, for example, studies, reports, statistics and guides for various purposes.
