Signal's description

Please describe the Weak Signal (approx. 150 words)

A main R&D growth driver over the last decade has been the service sector, in particular computer based services, even during the recent economic downturn – the service sector was also responsible for most growth in numbers of European researchers – this calls for new thinking about the qualifications of private sector researchers, given that researchers in the service sectors might need different skills than those working in manufacturing.
