This grant funds innovative research projects that develop consensus estimates of economic and social returns on R&D investments. It supports rigorous empirical studies, including quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods, to improve measurement accuracy and inform public and private investment decisions. Projects should generate actionable policy insights and engage with an international research cohort.
Applicants must be based at UK research organisations eligible for UKRI funding. Public sector, non-profit, and private sector organisations can apply. International researchers may participate as project co-leads or collaborators.
