										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The report&#8217;s primary focus is on research, development, and innovation (RDI) as a critical driver of productivity and competitiveness. RDI encompasses the efforts made by both private and public sector entities to develop new production methods, deliver goods and services, and create innovative products. The report adopts a broad definition of RDI, which includes organisational innovation, market innovation, and input innovation.</p>
<p>Recognizing the consensus on the importance of RDI for productivity, the report aims to gain a deeper understanding of the key drivers and challenges associated with RDI development in Malta. It seeks to provide policymakers with recommendations to address these challenges and foster RDI activities effectively.</p>
<p>The report analyses RDI and productivity on a sector-by-sector level, examining how relevant policies and initiatives can stimulate RDI activities in key economic sectors. The recommendations presented in this report should be considered in the context of the current global economic landscape, including Malta, as well as the fact that Malta has consistently lagged behind its European counterparts in terms of RDI spending and participation.</p>

<p>The MCESD has published &#8220;The National Productivity Report 2021&#8221;. This report focuses on the role of the digital transformation as a tool that can foster productivity gains leading to improved economic outcomes and to a higher quality of life.</p>
<p>The report presents the outcomes of the Digital Transformation readiness Index. This index was rolled out amongst a a representative sample of firms in Malta in order to gauge the readiness of these firms to implement and reap the benefits of transformation.</p>
<p>Based on the results, the report presents a holistic policy framework to support a digital Malta which will enable the country to achieve higher productivity.</p>
<p>The results highlight very specific gaps in Malta’s digital ecosystem as well as in the readiness of companies across sectors, particularly the low-productivity ones, to truly embrace and internalise digital transformation.</p>
