Abstract

Competitiveness is currently being studied by many economic analyses. Generalization of the countries' competitiveness definition as a measure of understanding of the performance evaluation economies is important. Visegrad Four countries: Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Poland were admitted to the European Union in May 2004. EU Member States must respect the common EU objectives. The European Union, as expressed in the strategy Europe 2020, is obliged to increase competitiveness, innovation, by introduction of modern technology and especially the growth R&D investment.Limited data to evaluate R&D expenditure: inconsistencies in the R&D support, the absence of data concerning the other means of financing in the sector BERD, limitations of statistical data on the number of innovations only to firms with R&D activities.The aim of this paper is to evaluate the development of R&D expenditures by sector of funding in the Visegrad Four countries in comparison with the values of the EU-27 and countries of Visegrad Four together.
