Frascati Manual

The Frascati Manual is a globally recognized guideline that defines how to measure and report research and development (R&D) activities within organizations and countries. It provides standardized categories, terms, and methods to help governments, companies, and institutions track investments, outputs, and impacts of innovation efforts. By doing so, it ensures consistent data collection and comparison across different contexts, aiding policymakers and stakeholders in making informed decisions about science, technology, and innovation strategies.
