On 26 and 27 July 2010, ZSI organises in Vienna within the framework of the SOQUA-Summer school a workshop on indicators to measure the internationalisation of RTD. Among other things the following issues will be tackled:

• which internationalisation objectives in science and technology must be addressed by a catalogue of indicators?

• which indicators are most common and which are most indicative?

• how can indicators be tested and used in the Austrian context?

Among others, Prof. Jakob Edler and Dr. Kieron Flanagan from the University of Manchester (Manchester Institute of Innovation Research) and Prof. Antonio Hidalgo from the Technical University Madrid, who works on measuring the RTD relations between the EU and Latin America, will discuss these and more questions with representatives of the policy-delivery systems and other participants of the summer school.
