No private sector research in future across the Europe

Description

Please describe the Wild Card (approx. 150 words)
Manufacturing still accounts for about 80% of total BERD and researcher numbers, making it the core of the EU's private sector research – manufacturing R&D also remained fairly stable during the recent economic downturn, which shows the commitment of business to R&D. However, increasing globalisation and the fact that most manufacturing is performed by large companies (as compared with the more fragmented service sector) increases the risk of outsourcing R&D to emerging markets outside the EU.
