UPDATE

I de sobte… un any més, ens agafa l’agost. La calor de l’estiu, enguany més intensa que mai, arriba acompanyada de la possibilitat de descansar un xic, si en teniu la fortuna. L’estiu és especial per a tothom. Un temps de desconnexió necessària, i sovint de lectures, per tornar a començar amb força renovada. Si aquesta és la vostra intenció, us recomanem uns llibres de divulgació científica i literatura amb ciència per llegir aquest estiu. Gaudiu-los!

El nou informe 'Exponential Leaders a Catalunya 2023' analitza les empreses més disruptives de Catalunya amb l’objectiu de donar a conèixer els seus reptes, els projectes disruptius i els factors que les diferencien de la resta d’empreses del seu sector.

The Startup Heatmap Europe is published annually since 2016 by the Ecosystem Acceleration Company DEEP Ecosystems. It is Europe’s most comprehensive study on the development of startup ecosystems and founder mobility in Europe. It analyzes more than 100 cities in Europe based on a survey among European founders and dozens of data points on ecosystem dynamics, like investments, community meetups and accelerators.

La visualització interactiva proporciona informació sobre els beneficiaris de les convocatòries estatals i catalanes a Catalunya finançades pel Mecanisme de Recuperació i Resiliència (MRR). Cal tenir en compte que les dades que es mostren estan en constant evolució i s'actualitzaran de manera periòdica a partir de dades oficials, sense pretendre ser una font de dades exhaustiva.

The purpose of the first phase in the ‘Evaluation Study on the European Framework Programmes for Research and Innovation for Addressing Global Challenges and Industrial Competitiveness – Focus on Activities for the Digital and Industrial Transition’ is to evaluate the contribution of the Horizon 2020 (H2020) Framework Programme to the Digital and Industrial Transition (DIT), supporting the European Commission’s ex-post evaluation. The evaluation considered all activities under the H2020 pillars and priorities. At the core was the H2020 ‘European leadership in enabling and industrial technologies’ (LEIT) programme part under the Industrial Leadership Priority. The scope included also the LEIT-related public-private and public-to-public partnerships and EIT KICs. The evaluation was conducted between January and November 2022, using a mix of qualitative and quantitative methods.

This dashboard shows the location of patent proprietors; the status and evolution of their requests for unitary effect; the technology sector to which their patents relate; as well as the language in which their European patents were published and subsequently translated.

El objetivo general de este informe consiste en describir el grado de desarrollo de la ciencia abierta en España en 2023 y también la percepción de los principales agentes implicados (investigadores, editores de revistas científicas, vicerrectores, directores de agencias de evaluación, profesionales de bibliotecas) sobre las barreras y los elementos favorecedores de la ciencia abierta en general y de sus principales componentes (acceso abierto, datos abiertos, revisión abierta, evaluación de la ciencia), en particular.

This report summarizes the conclusions reached after extensive consultation with experts, detailed in the accompanying TAG report “A model for implementing mission science for sustainability.” As part of the proposed shift in how we tackle the 2030 Agenda and its SDGs with greater expediency, the ISC Global Commission is calling for science in support of progress towards the SDGs to be undertaken and supported differently.

Using a dataset of patent information for the period 2000-2017, this study provides evidence on the development of green and digital technological trajectories in the EU, at both national and regional levels. In particular, it explores how the distributions of the two technologies vary over time, as well as across countries and regions. It also provides evidence on the location of the knowledge sources relevant for the development of these technologies, which is captured using the patent citations of EU green and digital patent applications.

This is the second in a series of three reports that explore how science was mobilised in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The focus is on science for policy – research agenda setting, scientific advice and public communication and engagement. The report includes recommendations and options for policy action to improve the resilience of national science systems and their capacity to cooperate internationally in response to crises.

This publication is aimed at a broad readership, including policy makers, the public, and stakeholders in all areas of science. It is written in non-technical language and gathers the perspectives of prominent researchers and practitioners. The book examines various topics, including the current, emerging, and potential future uses of AI in science, where progress is needed to better serve scientific advancements, and changes in scientific productivity.
