Insight from 300 UK businesses across 10 sectors over future plans for R&D to support innovation.
The CBI consults members when exploring any issue to understand the real-world business impact of policy decisions.
In this instance, the consultation has revealed a need for government and business to work together to raise R&D spend, after it has stagnated at 1.7% of GDP for many years.
