Collaboration performance

Despite the benefits of research collaboration for businesses Australia is ranked low at 23rd out of 26 OECD countries in terms of industry innovation (Chart 5.3). Global Competitiveness Report indicators of the extent of networking such as the ‘state of cluster development’ and ‘value chain breadth’ show that Australia is considerably behind other OECD countries, ranking 21st and 34th, respectively, among the 34 OECD countries.
